Abstract
Symmetry exists in many guises and forms in the natural world and has profound significance to our lives. The concept of symmetry has a broad appeal and so is applied to what we perceive with our senses and right down to the sub atomic level. The Tiger for example has a plane of reflectional symmetry running down the centre of her nose which bisects her body. An additional feature of interest for the chemist is that the symmetry of the Tiger is passed onto her cubs and so conserved through the generations.
Tyger! Tyger! burning bright In the forest of the night, What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry? William Blake (1757-1827)
