ABOUT THE BOOK

How to Solve It offers something unique: a tried and tested set of strategies
for overcoming any maths dilemma. Based on decades of analysis of the
methods and rules of problem solving and invention, acclaimed
mathematician George Pólya's approach brilliantly demonstrates how to
create useful analogies, tackle problems from unusual angles and how to
squeeze a little more information from the data.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

George Polya (18871985) was one of the most influential mathematicians of the twentieth century. His basic research contributions span complex analysis, mathematical physics, probability theory, geometry, and combinatorics. He was a teacher par excellence who maintained a strong interest in pedagogical matters throughout his long career. Even after his retirement from Stanford University in 1953, he continued to lead an active mathematical life. He taught his final course, on combinatorics, at the age of ninety. John H. Conway is professor emeritus of mathematics at Princeton University. He was awarded the London Mathematical Society's Polya Prize in 1987. Like Polya, he is interested in many branches of mathematics, and in particular, has invented a successor to Polya's notation for crystallographic groups.
