"Along with nature's alphabet of simple shapes like circles, triangles, pentagons and spirals, we find the structure and growth of plants can be understood through a knowledge of the Fibonacci Sequence and its cousin the Golden Mean ratio, numbers that grow the same way that plants do by building upon themselves in balanced, cyclical self-referential rhythms. This DVD traverses the history of the Fibonacci Sequence from ancient India to modern times, and then provides a strong foundation in its mathematics, even for beginners, through basic number theory and educational puzzles. Ideas include simple arithmetic, fractions, decimals, algebra and geometry."- Publisher. // Contents: Introduction. History. Beginnings. India. Numerals. Leonardo of Pisa. Rabbit puzzle. Botany.
