A**N
An excellent collection of mathematical puzzles.
This book has 74 problems from various areas of mathematics. There are problems in geometry, topology, number theory, polynomials, series, and integration theory. The problems themselves cover only 40 pages, but there are no less than 152 pages giving solutions. And if you do not want to whole solution, then there are 12 pages with hints and (very) short answers. There is even a bibliography. The difficulty of the problems varies. Some are easy, but many are very challenging. So it is an excellent book if you like mathematical puzzles, and prefer some variations.
