This hardcover edition features over 190 diagrams by Warren Lushbaugh, illustrating the fascinating world of polyominoes. Golomb, a renowned mathematician, introduces readers to the concept of polyominoes, which are plane geometric figures formed by joining one or more equal squares edge to edge. This book is an essential resource for enthusiasts of mathematical puzzles and recreational mathematics. The dust jacket is in poor condition, with significant tears and wear, but the book itself remains a valuable addition to any mathematical library.
