Every prospective teacher should read it. In particular, graduate students will find it invaluable. The traditional mathematics professor who reads a paper before one of the Mathematical Societies might also learn something from the book: 'He writes a, he says b, he means c; but it should be d.' ---E. T. Bell, Mathematical Monthly, "I recommend it highly to any person who is seriously interested in finding out methods of solving problems, and who does not object to being entertained while he does it." -- Scientific Monthly, I recommend it highly to any person who is seriously interested in finding out methods of solving problems, and who does not object to being entertained while he does it., "In an age that all solutions should be provided with the least possible effort, this book brings a very important message: mathematics and problem solving in general needs a lot of practice and experience obtained by challenging creative thinking, and certainly not by copying predefined recipes provided by others. Let's hope this classic will remain a source of inspiration for several generations to come." --A. Bultheel, European Mathematical Society, "Any young person seeking a career in the sciences would do well to ponder this important contribution to the teacher's art."-- A. C. Schaeffer, American Journal of Psychology, [This] elementary textbook on heuristic reasoning, shows anew how keen its author is on questions of method and the formulation of methodological principles. Exposition and illustrative material are of a disarmingly elementary character, but very carefully thought out and selected. ---Herman Weyl, Mathematical Review, "Every prospective teacher should read it.

Synopsis
A perennial bestseller by eminent mathematician G. Polya, How to Solve It will show anyone in any field how to think straight. In lucid and appealing prose, Polya reveals how the mathematical method of demonstrating a proof or finding an unknown can be of help in attacking any problem that can be "reasoned" out--from building a bridge to winning a game of anagrams. Generations of readers have relished Polya's deft--indeed, brilliant--instructions on stripping away irrelevancies and going straight to the heart of the problem.

That was very appreciated, thank you. Also, it was reasonably priced, thus making it affordable; Mailed in a bubble-wrap envelope, and the item was pristine! Thanks for making it available; Smooth transaction!

    This DVD arrived very quickly. It was shipped in a bubble mailer. I prefer movies to be shipped in boxes to ensure they are not damaged by those gorillas at the post office, but this movie arrived in good condition. Everything was as described. The film was in Italian audio with Korean subtitles as stated in the description. As a bonus, there were also Japanese subtitles. I was really happy to get the Korean version of this film for my collection at such a good price point. I couldn't pass it up
