Reviews
"Maths is fun? Who knew? Certainly not me when I was growing up, but I think I'd have got on differently had I been handed a copy of Marcus du Sautoy's book."-- Prospect Magazine, "In this book, you will learn beautiful facts about games you have enjoyed all of your life as well as games that you have never played, but can provide a lifetime of enjoyment. Written by mathematician Marcus du Sautoy, this book can be appreciated by game players of all mathematical backgrounds. Highly recommended!"-- Arthur T. Benjamin, author of The Magic of Math, "Marcus du Sautoy's brilliantly clear and captivating prose manages to bring to life the drama of so many different games. With the lightest of touches du Sautoy manages persuasively to show how games are both narratives that speak about us and structures whose ideas underlie everything in our known universe. And on top of it, the book serves as an absolutely indispensable compendium. Rainy weekends in Cornwall will now be welcomed."-- Stephen Fry, actor, "This meticulous and deeply researched survey will appeal to math-lovers and history buffs alike."-- Publisher's Weekly

Synopsis
A "fun" and "unexpected" ( The Economist ) global tour of the world's greatest games and the mathematics that underlies them Where should you move first in Connect 4? What is the best property in Monopoly? And how can pi help you win rock paper scissors? Spanning millennia, oceans and continents, countries and cultures, Around the World in Eighty Games gleefully explores how mathematics and games have always been deeply intertwined. Renowned mathematician Marcus du Sautoy investigates how games provided the first opportunities for deep mathematical insight into the world, how understanding math can help us play games better, and how both math and games are integral to human psychology and culture. For as long as there have been people, there have been games, and for nearly as long, we have been exploring and discovering mathematics. A grand adventure, Around the World in Eighty Games teaches us not just how games are won, but how they, and their math, shape who we are.
