This book contains a large variety of intriguing puzzles with detailed ingenious solutions generally not found elsewhere. This book is a great treasure for everybody who enjoys the beauty of fascinating world of recreational mathematics. Puzzles in the book can be browsed at random as these are not grouped in any orderly manner. Apart from puzzle enthusiasts and mathlovers, the book is considered of immense value for aspirants of Math Olympiad, CAT/MBA and job interviews of big companies like Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Yahoo, NVidia, Oracle, Adobe, Morgan Stanley, Bloomberg, etc. The title of puzzles has been suitably framed. Repetition of similar type of puzzles has been avoided to keep the book in a concise form. However, important aspects of similar puzzles, if any, have been covered in comments section. This book is divided into four chapters (Chaps. 1–4): Chapter 1 contains 25 short riddles and brainteasers. These puzzles vary from simple but tricky to challenging ones. Chapter 2 contains detailed solutions to all the short riddles and brainteasers given in Chapter 1. Chapter 3 contains 125 creative puzzles of varying difficulty level covering arithmetic and algebraic puzzles on clock, calendar, weight, age and digital puzzles, geometric puzzles, logical reasoning puzzles, and combinatorial puzzles, match puzzles and game puzzles like “kaun banega crorepati” (who will become a Decamillionaire), new year winner, winning numbers, etc. Some famous and old puzzles like Cheryl’s birthday, Bachets weight, liquid decanting, crossing bridge/river/desert, etc., have also been included so that readers can find all types of puzzles at one place. Only basic mathematics is required to solve these puzzles, but most of these puzzles are tricky and can be simplified by ingenious ideas. Chapter 4 contains detailed solutions to all the creative puzzles given in Chapter 3.

Voor een kind staat wiskunde meestal gelijk aan rekenen, terwijl een tiener denkt aan worstelen met driehoeksmeetkunde en vergelijkingen. Volwassenen hebben dan weer vaak het gevoel 'waar was al die wiskunde op school goed voor?'. Wiskunde is echter het, vaak onzichtbaar, kloppend hart in heel wat zaken uit ons dagelijkse leven. Professor Ann Dooms wil de kracht en schoonheid van wiskunde graag met het grote publiek delen en presenteert in dit boek een smakelijk buffet van wat wiskunde te bieden heeft: van eeuwige waarheid tot computers, van tellen op de vingers tot rondsurfen op Netflix en Google, van kijken in de spiegel tot bellen en betalen met je gsm, van turen naar de sterrenhemel tot het nemen van een selfie en van games tot artificiële intelligentie. Je zal verbijsterd zijn hoe de auteur erin slaagt om logica, limieten, irrationale getallen, vergelijkingen, afgeleiden, integralen en kansen een geheel nieuw leven te geven!

This monograph provides a concise overview of nonlinear internal wave theory. It serves as a self-contained reference for both students of mathematics as well as scientific professionals by presenting the material in two parts, isolating the narrative analysis from the mathematical detail. This unique format allows the text to remain accessible to oceanographers and researchers outside of mathematics by presenting a range of relevant theories on their own terms. Conversely, it enables applied mathematicians to understand how the conversation between mathematics and sciences proceeds in a field that has developed through a combination of the two. In addition, the text is supplemented by hands-on Matlab software, as the book incorporates a collection of working codes that enable readers to reproduce all theoretical figures in the text, with modification potential to fit a range of applications including a number of mini-projects outlined throughout the text.
