The book "Mathematical Billiards" by Galperin G. A. and Land A. N. is a fascinating and informative work that immerses the reader in the world of mathematics, using as a background an exciting game of billiards This is not just a textbook, but a real intellectual game, where each chapter becomes a step towards understanding complex mathematical concepts through the prism of fascinating problems and examples. The book discusses various aspects of billiards, which become a starting point for discussing mathematical theories and models. The authors masterfully combine the practical application of mathematics with theoretical knowledge, which makes the material accessible and interesting to a wide audience. The reader will not only learn how to solve billiard problems, but will also understand how these problems illustrate deeper mathematical principles. Who can like this book? First of all, it will be of interest to students and schoolchildren studying mathematics, as well as teachers who are looking for new approaches to explaining complex topics . People who are passionate about billiards will find in it not only fascinating tasks, but also new ways to look at their favorite game. In addition, the book is suitable for those who are simply interested in mathematics and want to expand their knowledge in this area, not going deep into dry theories, but using practical examples. The topics raised in "Mathematical Billiards" cover a wide range of mathematical concepts such as geometry, probability, game theory, and even elements of physics. The authors show how mathematics can be not only challenging but also fascinating when applied to real-world situations. Each task in the book is not just a set of numbers, but a real puzzle that requires a creative approach and logical thinking. This makes reading not only useful, but also exciting. The style of Galperin and Zemlyakov is distinguished by clarity and accessibility. They are able to explain complex things in simple language, which makes the book understandable even for those who are not experts in mathematics. Their previous work was also distinguished by the desire to make mathematics more accessible and interesting to a wide audience. For example, the books “Mathematics for All” and “The Game in Numbers” have already won the recognition of readers for their ability to turn the study of mathematics into an exciting adventure. "Mathematical Billiards" is not just a book about mathematics, it is an invitation to a world where numbers and figures come to life, and the billiard table becomes an arena for intellectual battles. The reader, opening this book, plunges into the atmosphere of competition and creativity, where each task is an opportunity to show their analytical abilities and creativity. If you are looking for something new and interesting that will help you look at mathematics from the other side, “Mathematical Billiards” is exactly what you need. This book will not only be a useful tool, but also a real source of inspiration for anyone who wants to deepen their knowledge and learn how to apply mathematics in everyday life. Do not miss the chance to discover this fascinating world, where mathematics and billiards are intertwined in an exciting dance of numbers and strategies.
