Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Engaging with mathematical puzzles can provide extraordinary enjoyment. The author proves this with this book. To solve the puzzles, one only needs basic mathematical knowledge and the ability to resist the urge to look at the answers. Entertaining Mathematical Puzzles is written in a clear and lively manner, featuring a mix of new and old puzzles. It is divided into various sections covering diverse mathematical topics such as money, speed, geometry, probability, topology, and tricky puzzles. Short and clear writings at the beginning of each section explain the nature and importance of the mathematics needed to solve the puzzles. Each puzzle is followed by a carefully prepared solution. In most cases, solving the puzzle requires logical and straightforward thinking, being ready to be surprised, and noticing a hidden factor that may be overlooked. Illustrated puzzles will attract the interest of parents, children, amateur mathematicians, scientists, and students. The author adds that you will be drawn into this intense area of thinking and will see some small paths inviting you into the depths of the mathematical forest.
