American origami master Montroll, the genius behind the single-square, no cuts, no glue approach; has created many famous designs and written several books. Here he focuses on folding single sheets into three-dimensional shapes to augment the recent interest in multi-sheet polyhedra. He covers designing origami polyhedra, platonic and related polyhedra, and dipyramids and dimpled dipyramids. His diagrams conform to international notation, and the difficulty of each figure is marked as one of four levels from simple to very complex. (Annotation ©2010 Book News Inc. Portland, OR)
