Pressestimmen
'Martin Gardner's fifteen volumes about Mathematical Games are The Canon - timeless classics that are always worth reading and rereading.' Don Knuth
'Hexaflexagons, Probability Paradoxes, and the Tower of Hanoi and Origami, Eleusis, and the Soma Cube provide a taste of Gardner's prowess at devising quirky and fascinating mathematical conundrums. An excellent example is the 'generalised ham-sandwich theorem', which, among other things, explains how a doughnut can be sliced into 13 pieces by three simultaneous plane cuts.' Physics World
'I recommend you approach this book on a Sunday afternoon, with paper and pen, a few biscuits for brain-power and a good hour to spare for puzzling. It is worth it.' Charlotte Mulcare, Plus Magazine
'One of Gardner's real strengths as a writer of popular mathematics is his ability to choose topics that will appeal to the general public while also having some real mathematical content. … Like the first volume, this one is in the 'must have' category.' MAA Reviews
'… presents plenty of well-known and some less well-known mathematical problems. … The presentation of problems is completed with many illustrative pictures and photos in every chapter. It is possible to find traditional solutions of every problem and also some newer views, explanations and proofs of solved problems.' EMS Newsletter
'The ten chapters in this volume are a wonderful part of Martin Gardener's work, each updated with selections from the enormous correspondence he enjoyed with his readers. This collection of Gardener's writing should be a cornerstone of a personal library for mathematicians, teachers and students everywhere.' Mathematical Reviews

Gardner is the best math writer ever, no time spent reading his work is ever wasted
5. Mai 2010
Format:Taschenbuch
If the essence of Martin Gardner could be distilled and injected into the authors of mathematics textbooks for K-12 students, it would be the end to the phrase "math is hard." No one has ever demonstrated anything close to his talents for making mathematics understandable and he once again (re)shines in this book. The articles are all reprints of his work that appeared in the "Mathematical Recreations" column of "Scientific American" although each now has an addendum, bibliography and answers to any questions posed in the article.
In this book, the titles of the 20 articles are:
*) The Five Platonic Solids
*) Tetraflexagons
*) Henry Ernest Dudeney: England's Greatest Puzzlist
*) Digital Roots
*) Nine Problems
*) The Soma Cube
*) Recreational Topology
*) Phi: The Golden Ratio
*) The Monkey and the Coconuts
*) Mazes
*) Recreational Logic
*) Magic Squares
*) James Hugh Riley Shows, Inc.
*) Nine More Problems
*) Eleusis: The Induction Game
*) Origami
*) Squaring the Circle
*) Mechanical Puzzles
*) Probability and Ambiguity
*) The Mysterious Dr. Matrix
Although I had read many of these articles several times before I opened this book, it is an irrefutable fact that any time spent reading the math of Gardner is never unproductive.

This is a great book! I made my first Soma set 50 years ago! I still have it! I've spent countless hours of fun with it!
Any book by Martin Gardner is good!
