Andrey is incredible. On his flickr account he mentioned that there should be around 25 diagrammed models and a section on design theory.
He finished full diagrams for his Dear Head already and has a preview of the last page:

I must confess I'd like to buy this book as soon as published (if it's in digital version, better, as it will run home faster than paper ;-)

I didn't notice the steps :roll: . I'm not good in maths so if there are 104 steps for the Mantis Shrimp op.62 (version 2.5)... 180 steps for the Deer Head... Oh my God! This one must be impossible! :lol:

Here, there is some information about the book Andrey Ermakov told me and, with his approval,

I read someone (I don't remember who now) cryied about having passed 2 years waiting for the book. Well, I can tell it's, if everything goes as expected, it will be here available on 2nd quarter of 2012.

Here it goes the information:


1) What language will it be in?

Unfortunately only in Russian. Translation of technical texts to other languages is extremely difficult and requires tremendous effort and time (editing, literary treatment, publishing issues, etc.)

However, I'm trying to make the book as most informative for any reader in any language as possible - with help of hundreds pictures and illustrations that describe each action mentioned in the teoretical part. So with patience, wanting to learn and with the illustrations, it may be not needed an interpreter.

Pure mathematics in the book will be very small. The main emphasis is on practical use of theoretical knowledge with the use of available tools: pencil, ruler, sheet, etc.


2) Will it be a printed book or will also be available in PDF?

It will be printed only. It will be two-colored diagrams, A4 size, and ~400-500 pages.

In the book, there will be 21 diagrams, 8 CP's, 3 secret origami puzzle with secret codes and... a secret bonus prize ;-)


3) As the book will be in Russian, will it be available to international buyers?

Sure, the book can be ordered via the Internet worldwide :-)

Let me suggest that as much text as possible be made available in digital format to allow non-Russian speakers to run the text through Google-translate. Also, for the text that doesn't machine-translate well, it will be possible to cut&paste Russian phrase online for suggested human translation.

With 100s of pictures in the book, I imagine that copyright infringement of the text alone would be impractical, minimizing the risk of illicit use, if the text is provided for translation purposes.

Hello!
My english is bad... Please use Google translate (russian-english):

"По договору с издательством моя книга выйдет из печати через 2,5 недели. В ответ на поступившие вопросы, публикую небольшой анонс того, что будет в издании…

Image

"Книга предназначена для оригамистов, уже овладевших первичными навыками складывания, желающим углубить свои знания в области создания собственных авторских моделей"
Язык – русский, страниц - 384, формат - (180 - 250)мм,

Первая половина книги – теоретическая часть (210 стр) Полное детальное описание линейных методик проектирования, в том числе ВР, НР, МР, RP, ОР, DP,DDP,… (большая часть теоретических и расчётных элементов, описанных в книге - авторские наработки, будут публиковаться впервые). Все главы описывают последовательный путь проектирования с самого нуля, по заранее выбранному художественному образу, при помощи подручных средств… В том числе, подробно описаны способы включения мозаик, гофр в структуру СР для произвольного украшения внешнего вида готового результата (pleated +tessellation, pleated + corrugation, упрощение структуры СР итд) …
В книге приведены только!!! те теоретические положения оригами, которые можно использовать на практике…
Для более детального описания теории издание богато иллюстрациями и фотографиями... - что поможет освоить информацию оригамистам, не знающим русского языка…

Image

Вторая половина книги – практическая,(174 стр.). Здесь Вы найдёте 21 диаграмму (от самых простых до сверхсложных), 10 паттернов (от 1/10 до 10/10), созданных в период с 2006-2012 года.… А также три оригинальных авторских оригами-головоломки (OriGame)... - за расшифровку каждой, Вы можете получить дополнительную диаграмму.
Большая часть схем и паттернов, публикуются впервые. Все диаграммы книги, которые публиковались ранее в различных изданиях – претерпели дополнения и модификации…
Диаграммы выполнены в следующем стиле…

Image

Точная стоимость будет известна после печати … Анонс моделей позже…
Вопросы по материалу можете задать в данной теме…»
