This is an exceptionally well-written book. The material is arranged in small chapters, with brief theory in the beginning of each chapter followed by a set of exceptionally difficult problems with solutions. These solutions are elegant, innovative and beautiful. You learn a lot from the solutions. In every page, you will discover one or more clever steps/tricks that will make you wonder "How come I could not think of that?" If you are preparing for Mathematics Olympiads, working through this book will boost your confidence 100 fold. If you are a math enthusiast, you will enjoy the material - most of it is "Mathematical poetry." Grab it before it gets sold out!
