As an undergrad. math major student, I've encountered Fibonacci numbers so many times all over text books... However, this book gives me a lot more insights of this amazing numbers interestingly. This book's especially good at exploring fibonacci numbers in nature as well as its mathematical aspects.

3.0 out of 5 stars A good starter, December 26, 2000

By A Customer

This book is a good starter. It provides a good introduction on what is a Fibonacci Series, the analysis of such and where Fibanacci numbers occur in nature and our lives. It even has a decient introduction on Lucas Numbers. However, it is just that, a good starter which I would whole heartedly recommend for a high school student that is just about to discover how wonderful math subjects can be. To get a more in depth presentation, one will have to refer to a receintly published paper on the subject or refer to a graduate text.

By	Mark Davis (Ashland, Ky United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A good intro book on Fibinocci numbers, but not what I was looking for. This book is geared toward middle school students.
