Modern Origami

by James Minoru Sakoda

The art of paper-folding is particularly useful to people who must amuse themselves in a minimum of space and with a minimum of noise... executives, pilots, convicts, commuters, deep-see divers of "someone, say, going to the moon." In this book. Dr. Sakoda brings freshness and clarity to a complex and otherwise frustrating art, and challenges beginner and expert with more than 50 designs, also guiding the reader through the fascinating technique of creating an original gallery of paper creatures.
