Every prospective teacher should read it. In particular, graduate students will find it invaluable. The traditional mathematics professor who reads a paper before one of the Mathematical Societies might also learn something from the book: 'He writes a, he says b, he means c; but it should be d.' ---E. T. Bell, Mathematical Monthly, "I recommend it highly to any person who is seriously interested in finding out methods of solving problems, and who does not object to being entertained while he does it." -- Scientific Monthly, I recommend it highly to any person who is seriously interested in finding out methods of solving problems, and who does not object to being entertained while he does it., "In an age that all solutions should be provided with the least possible effort, this book brings a very important message: mathematics and problem solving in general needs a lot of practice and experience obtained by challenging creative thinking, and certainly not by copying predefined recipes provided by others. Let's hope this classic will remain a source of inspiration for several generations to come." --A. Bultheel, European Mathematical Society, "Any young person seeking a career in the sciences would do well to ponder this important contribution to the teacher's art."-- A. C. Schaeffer, American Journal of Psychology, [This] elementary textbook on heuristic reasoning, shows anew how keen its author is on questions of method and the formulation of methodological principles. Exposition and illustrative material are of a disarmingly elementary character, but very carefully thought out and selected. ---Herman Weyl, Mathematical Review, "Every prospective teacher should read it.

Synopsis
A perennial bestseller by eminent mathematician G. Polya, How to Solve It will show anyone in any field how to think straight. In lucid and appealing prose, Polya reveals how the mathematical method of demonstrating a proof or finding an unknown can be of help in attacking any problem that can be "reasoned" out--from building a bridge to winning a game of anagrams. Generations of readers have relished Polya's deft--indeed, brilliant--instructions on stripping away irrelevancies and going straight to the heart of the problem.

    Book was "nearly new" and "as described" in listing. The advertised price was fair and a good value. Unfortunately, the seller's shipping partner was very slow to get the book packaged and shipped. Shipping took too long, and the tracking info gave no reliable info on shipping date, time in transit or expected delivery. Seller did everything right, but their shipping partner needs improvement. I recommend this seller to other eBay buyers....... just make sure you're okay with the shipping terms.

    The listing was for a hardcover version of this book; however, I received a paperback. The Seller replied quickly to my question about this issue and issued a full refund - and let me keep the book. So, a diligent Seller for sure - and well packaged and reasonable timing on shipping. Thank you for the refund, and as you suggested, I'll likely donate this volume and seek the hardcover.

    Great transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe

  • It's like the author is present guiding you on how to solve problems

    This is one of the simplest and most effective book I know. The author reasons with you.

  • Useful, Quick Read for Engineers, Scientists, and Other Mathematics Users.

    Showcases a number of approaches to solving problems involving mathematical analysis. Useful for math users at any level and worth rereading from time to time. I've lost track of how many times it's been recommended to me.

  • A must for mathematics.

    We must all solve problems at some point. This book is a classic problem solvers handbook.
