Publisher Description: Arithmetic, Geometry, and Algebra are uniquely intertwined with architectural design in a worship space as found in Christ Church of Philadelphia. Many of this historic church members fathered the Nation's history of independence. Musical scales, ratios of beauty as the Golden Balance, or Fibronacci series are presented along with an historical sketch of its design. The original City grid design with its parks using geometry, proportion, and symmetry is also hypothesized. |
