I love these books, though I don't share a Gardner's enthusiasm for topography. Nearly timeless puzzles. ( ) Indeholder "Indledning", "1. Heksaflexagoner", "2. Magiske kvadrater", "3. Otte problemer", "4. Trip-trap-træsko", "5. Sandsynlighedsparadokser", "6. 20-spillet og Tårnet i Hanoi", "7. Ejendommelige topologiske modeller", "8. Hex-spillet", "9. Sam Loyd: Amerikas problem-konge", "10. Matematiske kortkunster", "11. Hvordan man husker tal", "12. Nogle flere problemer", "13. Polyominoer", "14. Fejlslutninger", "15. Nim og Tac Tix", "16. Venstre eller højre", "Litteraturfortegnelse". En smuk og inspirerende samling af artikler fra Martin Gardners klumme i Scientific American. Kapitel 16 har eksempler på spejle, der ikke vender venstre og højre. Whether you are intrigued or unnerved by the complexities of mathematics, this is a book that will both delight and infuriate you. Culled from the pages of Scientific American, these puzzles, problems and paradoxes, with names like Hexaflexagons, Polyominoes and the Icosian Game, are the work of a master and the best of their kind. But a word of warning: this beguiling collection has been especially designed to seduce you for hours, days, weeks, from the more mundane business of practical life.

Paradoxes and paper-folding, Moebius variations and mnemonics, fallacies, magic squares, topological curiosities, parlor tricks, and games ancient and modern, from Polyominoes, Nim, Hex, and the Tower of Hanoi to four-dimensional ticktacktoe. These mathematical recreations, clearly and cleverly presented by Martin Gardner, delight and perplex while demonstrating principles of logic, probability, geometry, and other fields of mathematics. Hexaflexagons, Probability Paradoxes, and the Tower of Hanoi is the inaugural volume in Martin Gardner's New Mathematical Library. This book of the earliest of Gardner's enormously popular Scientific American columns and puzzles continues to challenge and fascinate readers. Now the author, in consultation with experts, has added updates to all the chapters, including new game variations, mathematical proofs, and other developments and discoveries.
