This book convenes a selection of 200 mathematical puzzles with
original solutions, all celebrating the inquisitive and inspiring
spirit of Nobuyuki "Nob" Yoshigahara - a legend in the worldwide
community of mathematical and mechanical puzzles. A graduate from
the Tokyo Institute of Technology, Yoshigahara invented numerous
mechanical puzzles and published over 80 puzzle books. In 2003, he
was honored with the Sam Loyd Award, given by the Association for
Games & Puzzles International to individuals who have been made
a significant contribution to the world of mechanical puzzles. In
this work, the reader will find some of the most ingenious puzzles
ever created, organized in ten categories: Logic, matchstick, maze,
algorithmic, combinatorial, digital, number, geometric, dissection,
and others. Some of them could rivalry with those found at
Mathematical Olympiads tests around the globe; others will work as
powerful brain teasers for those with an interest in
problem-solving. Math teachers, curious students of any age and
even experienced mathematicians with a taste for the fun in science
can find in this book unconventional paths to develop their
problem-solving skills in a creative way.
