About this title

Synopsis

This is a collection of informative extracts from Gardners' "Scientific American" column. Each brain-teasing article has been updated to include new mists, new ideas, and new solutions. Highlights include two new chapters-one on pi and poetry, one on minimal sculpture - and intriguing forays into time reversal, forms of fractions and magic, and an imaginary "Math Zoo" with its own publication, "ZOO-NOOZ".
