About the Authors
  • When one thinks of mathematical problems posed over the past 30 years, one name automatically leaps to the fore - Murray Klamkin. In this book Andy Liu and Bruce Shawyer present problems that he proposed over his career. It contains the 'quickies' (problems with quick and neat solutions) he proposed in 'Crux Mathematicorum,' his longer problems, and also problems which were posed in tribute to him after he died. Solutions are provided in the second half of the book.

    • A great way to improve your problem-solving
    • Problems are from a wide range of topics including combinatorics, calculus and inequalities
    • Solutions are provided in the second half of the book

    Andy Liu, University of Alberta
    Andy Liu is a professor in department of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences at the University of Alberta. His research interests span discrete mathematics, hypergraph theory, combinatorial geometry, foundations of mathematics, mathematical education and recreational mathematics. The common characteristics of the research problems he works on are that they are easy to understand but not so easy to solve.

    Bruce Shawyer, Memorial University of Newfoundland
    In 1985 Bruce Shawyer joined Memorial University as full professor, serving as head of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics from 1985-91. Dr Shawyer's professional interests in mathematics research include approximation of the sums of slowly convergent series, the summability of series and integrals, and Euclidean geometry. He is founder of the mathematical challenge for junior high school students and former head coach of the Canadian team for the International Mathematical Olympiad. Dr Shawyer has authored 118 publications and is currently Editor-in-Chief of the ATOM (A Taste Of Mathematics) book series.
