The Knot Book

The Knot Book, authored by John Keats, is a comprehensive guide to the physics and mathematics of knots. It explores how knots are formed, classified, and analyzed, connecting concepts from topology, geometry, and physics. The book discusses how knots can be studied mathematically to understand their properties, stability, and energy. It's useful for scientists and students interested in the fundamental nature of knots, their applications in fields like biology (DNA), chemistry, and materials science, and the mathematical theories behind knot tying. Overall, it offers an in-depth yet accessible look at the science of knots.
