Puzzle books are starting to dominate the bookshelves, but this book is different. It's the very first comprehensive techniques book on the market. In "How to solve sudoku", I give a step-by-step guide to cracking these sometimes infuriating puzzles. So if you are feeling a little grid-locked, here are 52 brilliant tactics to help you get to grips with solving sudoku puzzles. Remember, no arithmetical skills are needed. It is entirely a test of logic (but most of all patience!)." Professor Robin Wilson. What it's about? Professor Robin Wilson reveals 52 tactics for getting to grips with what is currently the fastest growing phenomenon sweeping the world. If you haven't heard about it yet - you will! Sudoku is a number puzzle for all generations, but math phobics should fear not. Each grid can be solved using logic alone. The puzzles vary from straightforward to fist-slamming-on-desk hard. "How to solve sudoku" is unlike any book currently on the market. First of all it's not a puzzle book (although you will find plenty of sample and practice grids). This is the first guide to give substantial advice on strategies and techniques for solving puzzles of all varying degrees of difficulty. In this book readers discover: a brief history of sudoku; fundamental terminology and some basic theory; how to get started (scan your rows and fill your gaps!); The vital techniques required to solve every kind of puzzle, from the easy to the diabolical; loads of examples of puzzles worked out with step-by-step instructions, alongside sample and practice grids for interactive learning; and Sudoku worksheets. With the 52 Brilliant Ideas series readers can enhance their existing skills with negligible investment of time or money and will substantially improve their performance over the course of a year. Each of the 52 chapters tackles a single aspect of the subject in an entertaining and lively way. At the end of each chapter is a "how did it go?" feature which allows readers to reflect on the lesson in a classical experiential learning pattern. The tone of each book is personal and informal; readers will feel as thought they are having a one-to-one with their favourite coach.
