Mage Merlin's Unsolved Mathematical Mysteries

You don’t have to be an adept at mathematics to enjoy the stories that math is capable of telling us, the functions available as a sort of magic. This book contains useful illustrations to guide the reader through sixteen complex mathematical puzzles in a way that will be understandable to most with elementary math skills. The narrative is driven by Mage Maryam, honoring the late Fields Medal winner Maryam Mirzakhani, who presents these mathematical mysteries superposed on a hypothetical Camelot

The book is written by two professors of mathematics whose goal is to make these math mysteries accessible and entertaining to those who might otherwise be daunted by math but want to make way into understanding the subject more.
