1.0 out of 5 stars
dissapointing ! mainly material from other books !,
By
This review is from: Mathematical Delights (Dolciani Mathematical Expositions) (Paperback)
This is a great dissapointment from the respected author and the respedted publisher. In the book there are 18 sections of problems. eight of them are "problems from..." other books. Most of those books are themselves on-the-shelves collections of prbloms. Some of those books are really new, one of them has not yet been published ! . Some other 5 sections are "problems from..." magazines. There are many available books of interesing problems (including this one). Fans of those book should be careful - they may get mainly something they already have.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Characteristically high quality solutions from Honsberger,
By science-buff (Fremont, CA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mathematical Delights (Dolciani Mathematical Expositions) (Paperback)
As Cambridge mathematician J C Burkill once said, "for, as every examiner knows, in the field of problems there is very little that is fundamentally new." The gems in this book are the excellent solutions that are characteristically Honsberger, even though the questions may be from elsewhere.
If you love Honsberger's other books, you will not be disappointed in reading this one. |
