Book Synopsis

The hexaflexagon is a folded paper strip of colored triangles that has long delighted people with how it magically changes its appearance when âœflexedâ. This hands-on, comprehensive book goes beyond the hexaflexagon, the standard version of this folded puzzle, exponentially expanding this barely explored field as it brings new options and fresh insights to light.

  • Learn over a dozen different flexes, make dozens of different flexagons with the aid of step-by-step illustrated directions and templates to copy and print.
  • Delve into the internal structure of flexagons and discover a universal way to describe and predict their behavior.
  • Learn how to create your own custom flexagons with a special computer program.
  • Understand how flexagons are connected to group theory, computer science, and topology.
  • Have fun decorating flexagons and make flexagon books, puzzles, pop-ups, mazes, and more.
