The tradition of honoring Martin Gardner continues with this edited
collection of articles by those who have been inspired by Gardner
to enter mathematics, to enter magic, to bring magic into their
mathematics, or to bring mathematics into their magic. Contributing
authors include world-leading puzzle designers, puzzle collectors,
mathematicians, and magicians.
The variety of articles includes card or magic tricks (with a
mathematical trick behind them), the history behind given puzzles,
mathematically interesting objects involving the number seven, and
puzzles for the reader to solve. Specific puzzles discussed include
tangram, 14-15 Puzzle, seven-coloring of the torus, packing
circles, Crazy Elephant Dance, and more!
