Skew Icosahedron


The regular skew icosahedron is a six-dimensional regular polytope that is just as symmetric as the Platonic icosahedron, but having different angles (Coxeter 1950; Coxeter 1999, pp. 143-145). A projection of the regular skew icosahedron is depicted on the cover and on p. 144 of Coxeter (1999).
