Математические игры , том 2. In the quarter of a century since three mathematicians and game theorists collaborated to create Winning Ways for Your Mathematical Plays, the book has become the definitive work on the subject of mathematical games. Now carefully revised and broken down into four volumes to accommodate new developments, the Second Edition retains the originals wealth of wit and wisdom. The authors insightful strategies, blended with their witty and irreverent style, make reading a profitable pleasure. In Volume 2, the authors have a Change of Heart, bending the rules established in Volume 1 to apply them to games such as Cut-cake and Loopy Hackenbush.From the Table of Contents: If You Cant Beat Em, Join EmHot Bottles Followed by Cold WarsGames Infinite and IndefiniteGames Eternal--Games EntailedSurvival in the Lost World

The second edition of this recreational mathematics text, which was originally published in 1982, has been corrected and split into four volumes. This second volume explores strategies for playing combinatorial theory- based games that may continue indefinitely due to infinitely many positions or several consecutive moves, and games in which the last player is declared the loser.

In this updated contribution to recreational maththe first of four planned volumes, Berlekamp (mathematics, electrical engineering/computer science, U. of California, Berkeley) and his merry math pranksters share combinatorics theory-based games and strategies to make such brainy games easier. Some color graphics enliven the many examples of such pastimes as Hackenbush, Toad vs. Frog, and Eatcake. Co-author Conway (mathematics, Princeton U.) invented the Game of Life computer simulation. Originally published 25 years ago. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

From the Table of Contents: - If You Can't Beat 'Em, Join 'Em! - Hot Bottles Followed by Cold Wars - Games Infinite and Indefinite - Games Eternal--Games Entailed - Survival in the Lost World *Winning Ways for Your Mathematical Plays*: First edition divides the content into two volumes. Second edition is comprised of four volumes. This is the 2nd edition, volume 2. In sums of games it is a move in just one part that counts as a move in the sum.
