The hangman's paradox, cat's cradle, gambling, peg solitaire, pi and e - all these and more are back in Martin Gardner's inimitable style, with updates on new developments and discoveries. Read about how knots and molecules are related; take a trip into the fourth dimension; try out new dissections of stars, crosses and polygons; and challenge yourself with new twists on classic games. 'Martin Gardner's fifteen volumes about mathematical games are the Canon - timeless classics that are always worth reading and rereading.' Don Knuth 'Gardner is a model teacher of mathematics, pushing others to take interesting side explorations, solve challenging problems, and enjoy the beauty of mathematics. This reviewer applauds the republication of his genius in 'The New Martin Gardner Mathematical Library' series, complete with revised explanations, new insights, up-to-date reference links, and brief surveys of recent discoveries ... it is worth getting the new editions and sharing these new gems!' J. Johnson, Choice 'I recommend you approach this book on a Sunday afternoon, with paper and pen, a few biscuits for brain-power and a good hour to spare for puzzling. It is worth it.' Charlotte Mulcare, + plus Magazine
