The Knot Geometry journey - Part I
Volume 12 of the Math-Art series. This 3-part book is a visual exploration of knot geometry and ethnomathematics to celebrate the similarities between abstract geometry and unique cultures worldwide. Starting at latitude 0º, longitude 0º, the author set sail (virtually) westward at an average of 400 (nautical) knots a week to fully cover its circumference and explore 1 new knot each week for an entire year. Part I is the art portfolio extracted from the geometry models, part II is a detailed record of the original geometry used to create the artwork, and part III is the weekly wind map log showing the project’s positioning, actual winds, and currents in real-time. Each book includes 52 illustrations, notes, and references.

The author is an experienced tutor, who also practices as a UML professional, and the cases are based upon his own experience. The book is accompanied by a website that provides solutions to end-of-chapter exercises, a password-protected tutor's file of further exercises with solutions, slides to accompany the book, and other support material. This book is suitable for all undergraduate computing and information systems, or Software Engineering courses. First year students will find it particulalry helpful for modules on systems development or analysis and design.
