Description

Prismatics is a book written by Richard Haywarde, which explores the concept of prisms and their impact on science, art, and culture. The book delves into the history of prisms, from their discovery by ancient Greeks to their modern-day applications in fields such as optics, photography, and architecture.Haywarde also examines the artistic and cultural significance of prisms, exploring how they have been used in literature, music, and visual arts. He discusses how prisms have been used as metaphors for a range of human experiences, from the fragmentation of identity to the search for truth.Throughout the book, Haywarde uses a range of examples and case studies to illustrate the many ways in which prisms have shaped our understanding of the world around us. He also explores the ongoing debates and controversies surrounding prisms, including their role in surveillance and privacy.Prismatics is a fascinating and thought-provoking book that will appeal to anyone interested in science, art, and culture. It offers a unique perspective on the history and significance of prisms, and the many ways in which they continue to shape our lives today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
