The Symmetries of Things is a book on mathematical symmetry and the symmetries of geometric objects, aimed at audiences of multiple levels. It was written over the course of many years by John Horton Conway, Heidi Burgiel, and Chaim Goodman-Strauss,[1] and published in 2008 by A K Peters. Its critical reception was mixed, with some reviewers praising it for its accessible and thorough approach to its material and for its many inspiring illustrations,[2][3][4][5] and others complaining about its inconsistent level of difficulty,[6] overuse of neologisms, failure to adequately cite prior work, and technical errors.[7]
