You're It! is a brilliantly observed hop, skip and jump down memory
lane; a celebration of the days when you used to get home from
school, hop out of your school clothes, skip over to your best
friend's house and jump around all afternoon until Mum called you
in for tea. Nowadays, those classic - and universal - games of
Hopscotch, Skipping, Bulldog and Hide and Seek are almost
forgotten, rarely played, rarely passed on as generations come and
go. With You're It! you can relive those fun and silly games in
this beautifully illustrated, wonderfully nostalgic book
celebrating the games we remember from our childhoods as well the
days themselves.

the other DJs. In this second edition which is the final part of

what do they get up to and more importantly what do they stand for?

Why do some games seem to be universal while others have a
particular connection to the culture of the people playing them?
Around the World in 80 Games is about the mathematics of chance,
game theory, gamification, gaming strategies and computer games.
Traversing the globe, Marcus du Sautoy looks at the genesis of
games new and old, explores how to invent a good game and explains
the fascination of a popular lockdown game. From the secrets of
whist to hopscotch, Scrabble to Wordle. The most simple games
endure: board games, card games and dice games have captivated us
for centuries and the acclaimed mathematician and author of The
Creativity Code (among many others) will once again bring
mathematics to the fore with insight and aplomb in Around the World
in 80 Games.
