"" is a mathematics course produced by The Teaching Company (TTC) —now known as The Great Courses —and taught by Professor Satyan L. Devadoss . TTC - Shape of Nature
: The Travel Corporation (TTC) supports "nature-based solutions" through its TreadRight Foundation , funding projects like kelp forest restoration and rainforest protection. Events - Earth Day Clear Lake
: Explores the notion of equivalence in shapes, Euler's masterpieces on Platonic solids, and the geometry of surfaces like the Möbius strip. The course uses visual examples to explain advanced
: Lectures cover how wind flows, currents, and curvature dictate the physical structure of the environment.
The 36-lecture series explores the hidden geometry and topological structures found within the natural world, moving beyond standard Euclidean shapes to examine how complex forms like DNA, proteins, and bubbles are organized.
