Sommario/riassunto

This book illustrates key mathematical aspects of the Golden Ratio: It particularly delves into geometric and number theoretical connections and examples, and makes further considerations and generalizations accessible. The book is primarily aimed at students, pupils, mathematics teachers, and interested laypeople. It is modular in structure, so the individual chapters can be read independently of one another. The reading is intended to encourage one's own geometric activities. Tips and procedural hints from the craft-creative realm are



also provided.

The Author Dr. Hans Walser was a high school teacher and a lecturer at ETH Zurich, the University of Basel, and the University of Teacher Education Basel in the field of teacher training and mathematics for students of natural and engineering sciences. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content. .
