Reviews

From the book reviews: The book presents, in a unified way, attractive topics in graph theory, topology, and set theory that all relate to the dilemma faced by Alice and Bob and others in hat problems. The first few chapters are of great general interest as they summarize hat problems that any mathematician can understand. The later chapters will be of interest to those well versed in set theory or certain aspects of point-set topology. (Stan Wagon, Mathematical Reviews, October, 2014)
