Abstract
What do our skeletons have in common mathematically with nature, Greek statues, the Parthenon, and Leonardo da Vinci's artwork? Fascinating Fibonaccis: Mystery and Magic in Numbers (Garland 1987) sheds light on the answer to this question and provides the opportunity for readers to discover other wonderful connections among mathematics, art, and nature. Making connections within mathematics and between mathematics and other content areas is one of the NCTM's goals for students. In my opinion, it is perhaps one of the most important goals. When students begin to make connections in mathematics and also between mathematics and other aspects of their world, they begin to see its beauty and its mystery. It becomes intriguing and meaningful to them, and their learning begins to have personal relevance.
