(More customer reviews)Egyptian Harmony is penultimate guide to harmony and universal geometry of nature and life, Moustafa's seventh book is a challenge to the reader requiring closer consideration than some of his earlier books. However, `The Visual Music' is by no means beyond the realm of the novice and only the domain of the academic, rather Moustafa has thoroughly explored, researched, measured and compared a science that is universal and presented it for the aficionado of Egyptian knowledge that directly applies to every culture, being and facet of life. Harmony is presented throughout the book with reference to geometry and mathematics fundamental to our building blocks of life and of place and shown with reference through the eyes of the Ancient Egyptians who were the first culture to employ and recognize the subtle geometry of the universe. Divided into thirteen knots, taken from the Egyptian cord that presents twelve equal divisions (just as it is with stringed instruments) the book itself is organized in harmony relating to harmony. Moustafa takes off where Johannes Kepler could only boast and does so without academic or personal gain using reference and intrinsic sense of the individual to offer a book of learning. Number has meaning, and beyond the occult trappings of so-called Pythagorean number mysticism Moustafa elucidates an understanding and breadth of related meaning behind number including its allegorical representations within Egyptian art and architecture. This book is a must for any who are frustrated by the sacred sciences of harmony distilled and diluted from the original source - the Ancient Egyptians.
