    • Ross Honsberger shows how powerful problem-solving is using elementary level mathematical techniques. His book contains a potpourri of intriguing and atypical problems and their solutions for the highly motivated student of mathematics ... A wonderful source of interesting problems for highly gifted high school students, undergraduate mathematics students, and their instructors.
      Choice

    • As his six previous kaleidoscopes published by MAA, this book is written with a top elegance, lightness and taste.
      Zentralblatt für Mathematik

    • This book can be used by mathematically gifted students to advance their mathematical level by solving suitable problems, and also by their teachers for their schoolwork. It can give pleasure to everybody who is interested in mathematics, but it can also bring enjoyment to more advanced mathematicians because the collection contains many problems which have unexpected results, in which different parts of mathematics are connected and which solutions are rather surprising. Reading this book your mind will really be at its best.
