The techniques are accompanied by folding instructions that illustrate them, building up to very advanced models at the end of the book. The second edition includes three new/highly revised chapters on box pleating, uniaxial box pleating, and polygon packing as well as smaller revisions throughout and improved illustrations"-- Provided by publisher.
