Fearful Symmetry: Is God a Geometer?This fascinating study explores a fundamental paradox behind the patterns of the natural world, in which symmetrical causes lead to asymmetrical effects. Lesser and greater patterns the structure of subatomic particles, a tiger's stripes, the shapes of clouds, and the vibrations of the stars are produced by broken symmetry.

This fascinating study explores a fundamental paradox behind the patterns of the natural world, in which symmetrical causes lead to asymmetrical effects. Lesser and greater patterns--the structure of subatomic particles, a tiger's stripes, the shapes of clouds, and the vibrations of the stars--are produced by broken symmetry. This accessible exploration of the physical and biological world employs the mathematical concepts of symmetry to consider the deepest questions of modern physics.An active popularizer of mathematics, Ian Stewart is a university professor and former columnist for Scientific American's "Mathematical Games" column. Martin Golubitsky is Distinguished Professor of Mathematics and Physical Sciences at the Ohio State University, where he serves as Director of the Mathematical Biosciences Institute. Both authors share an interest in the application of new mathematical ideas to scientific problems. More than 120 figures illustrate their illuminating survey of the interaction of symmetry with dynamics and the mathematical unity of nature's patterns.

Very nice if you aren't too pick on actual color.
Size: Single Pelt/2 ft x 3 ft, Color: Blue
Colors may vary. I really liked this, it was the perfect size and that perfect combination of soft and fluffy, but not being "too fluffy" and looking like a shaggy dog that needed a haircut. My only complaint was the color. Supposed to be blue, and I know monitors and lighting distort stuff but this was an obvious turquoise/teal. Much much greener than I was looking for. I could have made any variant of an actual blue work from powder baby to practically navy, but not this. I had to return, but other than the color, this seemed to be a very nice rug. Sad the color was so off.

Verified Real Sheepskin, High Quality, Looks Great
Color: Black, Color: Black
I was initially a little skeptical of the “real sheepskin” claim, so I really appreciated how much effort the seller put into transparency and verification.
This console cover comes with a detailed information sheet explaining how to identify real vs faux sheepskin using a burn test, and it also includes samples of both genuine and fake sheepskin so you can see the difference for yourself. That alone gave me much more confidence than most listings.
To verify the actual product, I carefully tested a very small, hidden area on the backside of the console cover itself. While the hair did briefly ignite (which initially gave me pause), everything else aligned with real sheepskin:
The smell was unmistakably burnt hair, not chemicals or plastic
The fibers did not melt like synthetic material
The burned area turned into soft, powdery ash, not hard or plastic like beads
Comparing my results to the included info sheet and photos, it clearly behaved like genuine sheepskin. Based on the smell, texture, and burn behavior, I’m fully convinced this is real.
The cover itself is very soft and well made. The black color is a true black (not faded or grayish), and it adds a nice upgrade to the interior. My daughter mainly wanted it for the look and the softness, and she’s been very happy with it.
It fits well on a standard center console and has stayed in place during regular driving. This should work nicely for most SUVs, sedans, and crossover vehicles that have a center console between the seats. This was for a 2019 Acura RDX.
Overall, this is a quality product, and the seller’s claims about authenticity were accurate. I really respect that they give customers the tools to verify it themselves.
Highly recommend.
