Reviews

""Now, were I a very young Ramanujan-want-to-be growing up in some corner of the world, what book--if the conditions of such a scenario limited my poor library to just one book--would be a wonderful treasure trove of problems for me on which to hone my skills? In essence, this is more or less the idea and purpose of Hathout's book if I understand him correctly. He presents the reader with statements of and solutions to 66 Gauss problems selected from discrete mathematics, combinatorics, elementary analysis, and geometry."" --Andrew James Simoson, Mathematical Reviews, October 2013 "" ... a vital addition to any mathematician's reference and teaching idea collection, highly recommended."" --Midwest Book Review ""The book is perhaps best enjoyed in small doses; while the mathematics is insightful and usually quite interesting, there is a lot to process. The payoff is well-worth the effort, even if that effort is expended over time; everyone will likely come away with some new ""aha!"" insights. --Mark Bollman, MAA Reviews
