This book is about morphogenesis as the genesis of forms. It is not restricted to plants growing from seed or animals developing from an embryo (although these do supply the most abundant examples) but also addresses kindred processes, from inorganic to social to biomorphic technology. It is about our morphogenetic universe: unplanned, unfair and frustratingly complicated but benevolent in allowing us to emerge, survive, and inquire into its laws.

Len Pismen is Emeritus Professor of Fluid Mechanics at the Technion, Israel, and a Fellow of the American Physical Society. He has published over 200 papers on the theory of nonlinear phenomena and its applications to fluid flows, soft and biological matter, catalysis, and surface phenomena. His earlier books are "Vortices in Nonlinear Fields" (1999), "Patterns and Interfaces in Dissipative Dynamics" (2006), and a non-technical book "The Swings of Science: From Complexity to Simplicity and back" (2018).
