About this product

Product Information

For more than twenty-five years, Martin Gardner was Scientific American's renowned provocateur of popular math. His yearly gatherings of short and inventive problems were easily his most anticipated math columns. Loyal readers would savor the wit and elegance of his explorations in physics, probability, topology, and chess, among others. Grouped by subject and arrayed from easiest to hardest, the puzzles gathered here, which complement the lengthier, more involved problems in The Colossal Book of Mathematics, have been selected by Gardner for their illuminating?and often bewildering?olutions. Filled with over 300 illustrations, this new volume even contains nine new mathematical gems that Gardner, now ninety, has been gathering for the last decade. No amateur or expert math lover should be without this indispensable volume? capstone to Gardner's seventy-year career.

    An excellent eBay seller. Great communication. They worked with me to ensure a great experience. The book I bought was all better than described, packed very well and securely, and shipped fast. The asked amount was a very fair market value. I would highly recomment this seller, and would not hesitate to order from them again. Thank you!

    Item arrived in perfect condition, well packaged and sealed up brand new. Amazing price compared to everywhere else I had looked. After waiting a few days for delivery info, the item arrived on the first day of the week they specified. This turned out to be a top quality item and a fantastic purchase, can only thank this seller for an outstanding experience and the opportunity to grab something I was struggling to find anywhere else and especially at the price they offered it. Cheers!
