The prodigious writings of Martin Gardner, from his Mathematical
Games column in Scientific American to the 70-plus books he
authored, had an enormous influence on the field of recreational
mathematics. This book collects articles Gardner wrote for the MAA
in the twenty-first century, together with other articles the MAA
published from 1999 to 2012 that are inspired by his work. Eight of
Gardner's articles are presented here: together they represent his
playful and engaging approach to recreational mathematics, and the
breadth of his interests, spanning geometry, number theory, graph
theory, probability, and pseudo-science. The remaining 33 chapters
are a diverse collection of responses to Gardner's work, many of
which address open problems. This book is a tribute to the deep and
lasting impact of a prolific and brilliant writer. It is for anyone
who, like Martin Gardner, loves mathematics.
