A Mathematical Pandora's box contains 142 puzzles to challenge people of all ages.

This is another one in the series of mathematical puzzle books. But this last is something of a misnomer for they contain, in addition to many puzzles, a mix of mathematical games, tricks, models to make, and explanations of interesting ideas and phenomena. The collection put together here contains, in all, 142 new items gleaned from many sources. Some of the ideas are hundreds of years old while others are entirely original and published here for the first time. The experienced mathematician will often be aware of the underlying theory which is the basis of a puzzle, but its solution does not normally require any great mathematical knowledge; rather it requires mathematical insight and tenacity. The ability to persist, to reflect, to research, and to call on other experiences is the key o to a successful conclusion. When all else fails there is the detailed, but essential, commentary at the end of the book which will often add more insight even when you have found a solution and will sometimes offer a follow-up problem. None of the solutions are knowingly incorrect, but there may well be better ones.

Mathematical Cavalcade contains a further 131 puzzles to challenge people of all ages.

Pandora waas the "pagan Eve," and she is one of the rare mythological figures to have retained vitality up to our day. Glorified by Calderon, Voltaire, and Goethe, she is familiar to all of us, and "Pandora's box" is a household word. In this classic study Dora and Erwin Panofsky trace the history of Pandora and of Pandora's box in European literature and art from Roman times to the present. Originally published in 1962. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
