The Price of Cake: And 99 Other Classic Mathematical Riddles
Description :
Ingeniously designed mathematical riddles to delight
armchair—an seasoned—mahematicians, in high school
and beyond.In The Price of Cake, brothers Clémen and
Guillaume Deslandes have assembled a uniquely rich and accessible
collection of mathematical riddles, organized by difficulty and
accompanied by unique hand-drawn illustrations. The challenges are
exceptional in both their range and their precision. There are no
“trcks”here—jut good math to test your
skills.While any student will be thrilled to encounter fresh
presentations of classic conundrums such as
Simpson’sparadox, Hilbert's infinite hotel, Monty
Hall’sparadox, and Seven Bridges of Königberg,
seasoned solvers will also appreciate challenging original puzzles
using the Axiom of Choice and Conway’sSoldiers problem.
The Deslandes’lucid and elegant solutions offer new insights,
as they seamlessly connect the skills applied in each problem to
broader theoretical revelations. Moreover, as Fields Medalist
Cédri Villani writes in his preface, these riddles are much more
than just exercises. They capture “acertain dose of decorum
and mystery,”and to decipher them will require both
imagination and tenacity.To aid you on this journey, the authors
provide hints to each puzzle, detailed proofs and solutions, and a
series of Math Refreshers to revisit important concepts that are used
to arrive at those answers. Entertaining and rigorous in equal
measure, The Price of Cake is bound to captivate mathematics
enthusiasts and students of all levels.
