The Moscow Mathematical Olympiad has been challenging high-school students with stimulating, original problems of different degrees of difficulty for over 75 years. The problems are nonstandard; solving them takes wit, thinking outside the box, and, sometimes, hours of contemplation. Some are within the reach of most mathematically competent high-school students, while others are difficult even for a mathematics professor. Many mathematically inclined students have found that tackling these problems, or even just reading their solutions, is a great way to develop mathematical insight. In 2006 the Moscow Center for Continuous Mathematical Education began publishing a collection of problems from the Moscow Mathematical Olympiads, providing for each an answer (and sometimes a hint) as well as one or more detailed solutions. This volume represents the years 1993-1999. The problems and the accompanying material are well suited for math circles. They are also appropriate for problem-solving classes and practice for regional and national mathematics competitions. Titles in this series are co-published with the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI).

Top reviews from the United States

Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2013
Preparing for olympiad mathematics requires books with problems far exceeding the difficulty of those used in high school classrooms. This is a great collection of problems that show the different focus and culture of mathematics education in Russia is to those of the U.S. and its olympiads. This is great material to compare from a math education research standpoint, and the book provides a firm foundation for the easier problems one would see in the IMO and for actually studying old IMO problems.
Using this for USAMO may not be the best preparation, but due to a lack of USAMO problems in print form, few alternatives exist.

Also look for the 2000-2005 problems published by the same publisher!
