5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book on Doing the Cube, March 30, 2007

By	Maine Character (Westport Island, ME) - See all my reviews

There were many books out in the early 80's on how to do Rubik's Cube, and this one was the best. The movements aren't labeled with complicated numbers, but with very clear arrows. All you need to do is memorize each series of movements and, with some practice and quick hands, you can do the Cube in under three minutes.

The book also offers a few pages on Cube maintenance, and there's even a nice bit at the end that shows you how to make your Cube display patterns such as diagonal lines, checkers, crosses, and Z's.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easiest solution book for the Cube that I've ever found, June 24, 2007

By	D. B. Rosenbaum (West Coast) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I remember getting this book when I was in the 2nd grade. Now I'm 34! The solution book is very easy to follow with simple diagrams. All the moves are explained in the book too so you have an understanding as to what you will be doing. I still cannot remember the moves but I can at least solve the cube easier than ever!

5.0 out of 5 stars "You Can Do The Cube" by Patrick Bossert, January 22, 2009

By	Susan Ruiz "Susan" (Florida, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Thanks to Patrick Bossert's book, I was able to finish the cube and I look forward to getting faster at solving it. The book is very easy to understand and explains the different stages of solving the cube. It was much better to have a book in front of me than to watch a video clip of it as the video clips are much too fast for me. My goal is to solve the cube all by myself. Thank you, Patrick!
