Sacred geometry of the Earth : the ancient matrix of monuments and mountains / Mark Vidler and Catherine Young.
"From continent to continent across the globe, Mark Vidler and Catherine Young reveal that order is everywhere on Earth. On remote islands, soaring summits, and level deltas, they unveil natural topographic patterns related to pi, the golden ratio, and right-triangle geometry. And as the planet's design emerges, it becomes clear that this hidden order in nature decided the location of ancient monuments the world over, "--Amazon.com.
