A posthumous tribute to Martin Gardner, this book is a must-read for anyone who loves Lewis Carroll, puzzles, logic, math, and/or annotated classics. This beautiful hardcover combines entertaining and heartfelt reminiscences of Gardner with academic essays written in his honor, and includes a complete biography by Michael Patrick Hearn and contributions from such noted authors as Will Brooker, Douglas Hofstadter, Morton Cohen, Raymond Smullyan, and Robin Wilson, to name but a few. It also contains Gardner’s own final, post–”Definitive Edition” addenda to his towering Annotated Alice classic, as well as an authoritative bibliography of his Carroll-related writings.
