Topics in recreational mathematics
The topics discussed in this book have formed the subject of talks given by the author to mathematical and scientific audiences. The aim was to show something of the fascination and beauty of mathematics, as well as its enormous extent. The mathematical background assumed does not often go beyond that at G.C.E. at Advanced Level, but it is rather more extensive than that required for many of the excellent accounts of recreational mathematics available.
