The Master Book of Mathematical Recreations by Fred Schuh
Requirements: .PDF reader, 14.1 mb
Overview: This book concerns itself with that aspect of problems which is most lastingly engaging and certainly the most valuable: the mathematics behind puzzles and recreations, games, card tricks, and similar material. You are shown several methods by which a particular problem may be answered, why one method is preferable, and where the others fail. With numerous worked examples, this clear step-by-step analysis of how the problem should be approached (hints; enumeration of possibilities and determination of probabilities; application of the theory of probability; evaluation of contingencies and mean values; etc.) will enable readers to learn puzzle-solving strategy and use these pointers in mathematics.
