Pick a card! Think of a number! Magic tricks are irresistible to watch and even more fun to perform. A surprising number are based on mathematical principles. In 12 delightful lessons, Professor of Mathematics Arthur T. Benjamin of Harvey Mudd College, who also performs as a professional magician, explains some of his favorite math-based showpieces. From card tricks to feats of mental calculation to geometric conundrums, Math and Magic teaches you how to do dozens of tricks that will leave your audiences scratching their heads in amazement. Above all, you will be able to explain the math that’s really pulling the strings, whether it’s an algebraic expression, a computational shortcut, or a strange topological property.
