Overview

Populated by curious creatures whose stories unfold with jokes, this mathematical wonderland of puzzles and games was written by a columnist for Pour la Science, the French edition of Scientific American. Most of the 16 articles are based on a mathematical idea, dressed up with oddball characters and wacky wordplay.
