Winning Ways for Your Mathemati Volume 2 2ND Editionby Elwyn R Berlekamp
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:In the second of a four volume set, the authors of the definitive book on mathematical games have a Change of Heart. This carefully revised classic bends the rules of Volume 1 to apply to games that may continue indefinitely or in which "winning" is not necessarily making the last move, such as Cut-cake and Loopy Hackenbush. This essential companion to Volume 1 explores "partizan" games of infinitely many positions and "loopy" unending and impartial games with the same playful tone and rigorous mathematical analysis perfected in the first volume of the classic work. Book News Annotation: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.
