Harbin's pioneering book provides a comprehensive introduction
to this simple and inexpensive, yet creative and absorbing
art form. It includes a complete history of origami (or
the art of paperfolding), from its origins in the twelfth
century. Teach Yourself Origami provides information
on the essentials of origami, followed by over 400 diagrams
with clear and easy-to-follow instructions that show how
to create a range of models. The book's aim is to provide
a new dimension in enjoyment, infinite and unrivalled
in its capacity to make you relax and forget everything
else.
This new edition has been revised by
David Brill, of the British Origami Society, and includes
new diagrams for the reader to follow to make new models.
