| | The Mobius Strip and The Möbius Strip |
 | | The Mobius strip--the common sense-defying continuous loop with only one side and one edge, made famous by the illustrations of M. Escher-leads us to some of the strangest spots imaginable. |
 | | Come along as Pickover traces the origins of the Mobius strip from the mid-1800s, when the visionary scientist Dr. August Mobius described the properties of one-sided surfaces, to the present, where it is an integral part of mathematics, magic, science, art, engineering, literature, and music. |
 | | The Mobius strip is a metaphor for magic and mystery, and a perpetual icon that stimulates us to dream new dreams and look for depths even in seemingly shallow waters. |
