Summary
"With over two hundred elaborate diagrams and photographs, as well as a few words on regional provenance and cuisine, Pasta by Design offers a surreal interpretation of the everyday experience of making and eating pasta. Specifically, it presents a magnified view of the forming stage of the pasta-making process (the mechanical extrusion of a mixture of durum wheat-flour and water into the familiar shape).... [W]e have used mathematics to model reality and make it fun."--P. 008.
