Would you like to learn how to perform amazing feats of mind? Dr. Benjamin will show you how in his latest book, Secrets of Mental Math: The Mathemagician's Guide to Lightning Calculation and Amazing Math Tricks.

The book is an updated version of his out-of-print book, Mathemagics, with a new publisher, Random House. The book is co-written with Michael Shermer, and has a Foreword by Bill Nye the Science Guy.

Here are what others have to say about the book:

"A great introduction to the wonder of numbers, from two superb teachers."
--- Brian Greene, author of The Elegant Universe

"A magical mystery tour of mental mathematics! Fascinating and fun."
--- Joseph Gallian, president of the Mathematical Association of America

"The clearest, simplest, most entertaining, and best book yet on the art of calculating in your head."
--- Martin Gardner, author of Mathematical Magic Show
and hundreds of Mathematical Games columns for Scientific American.

"This book can teach you mental math skills that will surprise you and your friends. Better, you will have fun and have valuable practical tools inside your head."
--- Dr. Edward O. Thorp, mathematician and author of Beat the Dealer
and "Beat the Market"



You may order the book from any bookstore, including your favorite online dealer. (If your local bookstore doesn't have it, tell them to order it!) The ISBN number is 0-307-33840-1. The retail price is $12.95.

To purchase an autographed copy, send a check for $15/book (made out to Dr. Arthur Benjamin) to: Dr. Arthur Benjamin, Math Department, Harvey Mudd College, 301 Platt Boulevard, Claremont, CA 91711. The price includes tax, shipping, and handling. (International orders, please add $10/book for additional shipping.) If you supply a birthday, including the year, he will also include a personalized magic square based on that birthday, along with his autograph.

Dr. Benjamin has also written another book for more mathematically sophisticated readers (aimed at undergraduate math students) called Proofs That Really Count: The Art of Combinatorial Proofs, co-authored with Jennifer J. Quinn, published by the Mathematical Association of America. In 2004, the book was given a "Choice Award" for Outstanding Academic Title by the American Library Association. In 2006, the book received the Beckenbach Book Prize from the Mathematical Association of America.
