    \(Origami^6\) is a unique collection of papers illustrating the connections between origami and a wide range of fields. The papers compiled in this two-part set were presented at the 6th International Meeting on Origami Science, Mathematics and Education (10–13 August 2014, Tokyo, Japan). They display the creative melding of origami (or, more broadly, folding) with fields ranging from cell biology to space exploration, from education to kinematics, from abstract mathematical laws to the artistic and aesthetics of sculptural design.

    This two-part book contains papers accessible to a wide audience, including those interested in art, design, history, and education and researchers interested in the connections between origami and science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Part 1 contains papers on various aspects of mathematics of origami: coloring, constructibility, rigid foldability, and design algorithms.

    • [A]s a high school mathematics teacher, my favorite part of the book is the applications of origami that align with many of the pedagogical ideas implemented in my class. Flow between chapters was smooth and I could sense the comprehensiveness of each key aspect of the book. I highly recommended this book to the secondary and higher education STEM teachers in my building and the local college; I am hopeful that many interdisciplinary projects can come out of it.
