Some praise for her previous books in the same subject, Marvelous Modular Origami (2007), Ornamental Origami: Exploring 3D Geometric Designs (2009), and Origami Inspirations (2010) is below: â€œMeenakshiâ€™s work is both intricate and lovely. Sheâ€™s greatly respected in the origami world, one of the well-known world leaders in modular origami. Her books offer a nice exposition of the mathematical elements, but youâ€™re not being hit over the head with math lessons. You learn things without even realizing that you have.â€ â€”Robert Lang, worldâ€™s leading origami artist â€œA whole book [Origami Inspirations] full of amazingly attractive new modular pieces, highly recommended to all modular folders and those wanting to dabble in this pastime. High standard of diagramming and model novelty applied throughout.â€ â€”David Petty, British Origami Society â€œMukerji presents yet another colorfully illustrated book, Origami Inspirations, showing in clear diagrams how to make complex three-dimensional figures by folding paper.â€ â€”SciTech Book News â€œOrnamental Origami is a wonderful book for both math and origami lovers alike. The author provides, clear descriptions and beautiful photographs.â€ â€”MAA Reviews â€œOrnamental Origami is essentially a study of polyhedra but in a way that brings out the symmetry in subtle ways. It builds up very complicated results from simple modules so that even a beginner in origami can follow and learn about polyhedral symmetry by assembling them. It should definitely find a place in school teaching or mathematics clubs.â€ â€”John Sharp, The London Mathematical Society Newsletter
