This volume comprises an imaginative collection of pieces created in tribute to Martin Gardner. Perhaps best known for writing Scientific American's 'Mathematical Games' column for years, Gardner used his personal exuberance and fascination with puzzles and magic to entice a wide range of readers into a world of mathematical discovery. This tribute therefore contains pieces as widely varied as Gardner's own interests, ranging from limericks to lengthy treatises, from mathematical journal articles to personal stories. This book makes a charming and unusual addition to any personal library. Selected papers: The Odyssey of the Figure Eight Puzzle by Stewart Coffin BlockPacking Jambalaya by Bill Cutler O'Beirne's Hexiamond by Richard K. Guy Biblical Ladders by Donald E. Knuth Three Limericks: On Space, Time and Speed by Tim Rowett.
