Book excerpt: Her devout Catholic family taught her to believe and trust in Divine intervention, but when God did not intervene to save her twenty-four year old detached-at-birth twin sister from leukemia she walks away from her religion and is on the eve of destruction. After meeting Fib whose parents named him after their much-loved mathematician and as a result grew up obsessed with the Divine proportion, she postpones her appointment with death. And when he shows her the correlation between the Fibonacci theory and nature and that in fact Mother Nature is not only kind but also showers us with wonders all beautifully created in Divine proportion just like her face, she casts aside all thoughts of suicide. She regains her faith and a fiery love affair ensues that is thought to last not a day shorter than forever, but when she too is diagnosed with leukemia Fib sets his own appointment with death.

Book The Golden Ratio Within the Human Face and Breast

Download or read book The Golden Ratio Within the Human Face and Breast written by Andrew Hayduke and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-26 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why are only certain people considered physically beautiful? What is it - specifically - within their anatomy that these lucky few individuals possess that most of us simply do not? Can we somehow objectively test our own anatomy for beauty and then use our test results as a guide to change our physical appearance? Can we join this highly elite group of physically beautiful people? Dr. Andrew Hayduke's groundbreaking book is the first of its kind to explore a potential scientific explanation for why only certain faces and breasts appear physically beautiful. After decades of experience as a plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills and Palm Springs, California, Dr. Hayduke shares his unique perspective on this fascinating subject. The Golden Ratio Within the Human Face and Breast unveils the mysterious underlying secret blueprint for human physical beauty that exists hidden deep within the anatomic layout of attractive (i.e., beautiful) faces and breasts. The Golden Ratio Within the Human Face and Breast will:1) Convince you to look beyond the expression "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" and consider something far more intriguing as the true explanation for physical beauty. 2) Provide evidence that beauty is an objective quality rather than a mere subjective opinion. 3) Provide an all-access backstage pass to the secret clinical analysis methodologies used by a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon. 4) Illustrate how the faces and breasts of average-looking people can be transformed to a more beautiful appearance with the help of Dr. Hayduke's state-of-the-art facial and breast beauty tests. 5) Disclose a detailed description of the once-secret inner mechanism of both the Hayduke Facial Analysis test and the Hayduke Breast Analysis test-including the exact specifications of each anatomic test grid used within Dr. Hayduke's patented beauty analysis methodologies. 6)Explain the basics of the golden ratio (also known as the divine proportion, golden section, golden mean, golden proportion, divine section and golden number). 7) Illustrate how the golden ratio relationship of 1.618 to 1.0 is secretly hidden within many beautiful world-famous works of art, architecture, logos, and even nature.

  • Pages : 301 pages

Download or read book Made Up written by Martha Laham and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-10-10 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Made Up exposes the multibillion-dollar beauty industry that promotes unrealistic beauty standards through a market basket of advertising tricks, techniques, and technologies. Cosmetics magnate Charles Revson, a founder of Revlon, was quoted as saying, "In the factory, we make cosmetics. In the store, we sell hope." This pioneering entrepreneur, who built an empire on the foundation of nail polish, captured the unvarnished truth about the beauty business in a single metaphor: hope in a jar. Made Up: How the Beauty Industry Manipulates Consumers, Preys on Women’s Insecurities, and Promotes Unattainable Beauty Standards is a thorough examination of innovative, and often controversial, advertising practices used by beauty companies to persuade consumers, mainly women, to buy discretionary goods like cosmetics and scents. These approaches are clearly working: the average American woman will spend around $300,000 on facial products alone during her lifetime. This revealing book traces the evolution of the global beauty industry, discovers what makes beauty consumers tick, explores the persistence and pervasiveness of the feminine beauty ideal, and investigates the myth-making power of beauty advertising. It also examines stereotypical portrayals of women in beauty ads, looks at celebrity beauty endorsements, and dissects the “looks industry.” Made Upuncovers the reality behind an Elysian world of fantasy and romance created by beauty brands that won’t tell women the truth about beauty.

Book Facial Multi characteristics And Applications

Download or read book Facial Multi characteristics And Applications written by Bob Zhang and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2018-11-19 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What features or information can we observe from a face, and how can these information help us to understand the person concerned, in terms of their well-being and what can we learn about and from each given feature? This book answers these questions by first dividing a face's multiple characteristics into two main categories: original (or physiological) features and features that change over a lifetime. The first category, original features, may be further divided into two sub-classes: features special (or unique) to an individual, and features common to a particular group. The second, changed features, can also be subdivided into two groups: features altered due to disease or features altered by other external factors. From these four sub-categories, four different applications — facial identification using original and special features; beauty analysis using original common features; facial diagnosis by disease changed features; and expression recognition through affect-changed features — are identified.The book will benefit researchers, professionals, and graduate students working in the field of computer vision, pattern recognition, security/clinical practice, and beauty analysis, and will also be useful for interdisciplinary research.
