Paper Engineering for Pop-Up Books and Cards

This book illustrates in dynamic form ten basic mechanisms which are used in making pop-up books. It offers many imaginative possibilities. Each of the ten basic mechanisms is illustrated by a working model which you can cut out and make. When finished, it glues back into the book on a special tab and folds away to make a kind of 3-dimensional dictionary or encyclopedia. For each working model there is also a page called 'technical considerations' which points out important features of the mechanism and suggests how it might be used to create original designs of your own.Hiner, Mark is the author of 'Paper Engineering for Pop-Up Books and Cards' with ISBN 9780906212493 and ISBN 0906212499.
