Bøger i AK Peters/CRC Recreational Mathematics Series serien

Offers folding instructions for the construction of over 40 modular origami creations. This title describes how to fold the 'modules' and how to use them as building blocks to construct larger polyhedral models. It is aimed at intermediate folders, but the origami basics included at the start of the book make it accessible to beginners.

Explores geometry and tilings through the art of origami. This book provides the fundamentals of origami tessellations - including techniques to tessellation folding - as well as step-by-step instructions for 25 origami tessellation projects. It is suitable for beginners, intermediate folders, and expert origamists.

This book explores the history of mathematics from the perspective of the creative tension between common sense and the "impossible" as the author follows the discovery or invention of new concepts that have marked mathematical progress.

This book contains the complete list of problems and solutions to the International Mathematics Tournament of the Towns from Fall 2007 to Spring 2021. The primary audience for this book is the army of recreational mathematicians. It should also have great value to students preparing for mathematics competitions and trainers of such students.

History and mathematics of a game invented in 1942.

This is a text on games and how to play them intelligently. In Volume 1, the authors do the spade work, presenting theories and techniques to "dissect" games of varied structures and formats in order to develop winning strategies.

Presents step-by-step instructions and color distribution suggestions to create the more than 30 intricate designs. This book also includes a chapter featuring designs by origami artists from around the world.

Contains select contributions from the Fourth International Conference on Origami in Science, Mathematics, and Education (4OSME), held September 8-10, 2006, in Pasadena, CA. The conference has been held approximately once every five years, and it focuses on the mathematics of origami and applications of origami in the sciences.

Here, the game "dots and boxes" serves as an introduction to mathematical game theory. The title is a guide to the game and its mathematical underpinnings. Chapters on strategy are interspersed with 100 sample problems and their strategic solutions.
