Recenzii

“This is certainly a definitive comprehensive treatise on the history of magic squares from their known beginnings to 1600. There is a wealth of material, containing methods of construction as well as individual magic squares, including bordered and pandiagonal magic squares, that is astonishing.” (Victor V. Pambuccian, zbMATH 1422.01002, 2019)
