From the Publisher

Polyhedra are Cool!

Polyhedra are like geometric playthings that can intrigue and excite. Origami makes these complex objects easier to understand by breaking them down into their smaller components. Although most of the projects in this book are constructed from many simple units that are then assembled to make the final shape, some of them can be made from just one sheet of paper.

Basic Cubes (12 Units) Stellated Tetrahedron (6 Units) Regular Octahedron (from 1 Square)) and over 60 more!
