Overall Impression

In this book, Montroll explores the possibilities in using duo-sided paper, making both sides of the paper show in the final model.
The subjects vary - from ghosts and Martians, to multi-colored geometric shapes, to animals, and concluding with a full chess set, complete with a chess board with legs, from 1 square!
A fun and interesting book.
