This week we have a book called Nets, Puzzles, and Postmen by Peter M Higgins (Oxford University Press) to give away.
The synopsis says:
“What do road and railway systems, electrical circuits, mingling at parties, mazes, family trees, and the internet all have in common? All are networks - either people or places or things that relate and connect to one another. Only relatively recently have mathematicians begun to explore such networks and connections, and their importance has taken everyone by surprise. The mathematics of networks form the basis of many fascinating puzzles and problems, from tic-tac-toe and circular sudoku to the 'Chinese Postman Problem' (can he deliver all his letters without traversing the same street twice?).”
If you’d like to win it then email us with your name and address, and the words ‘Puzzles and postmen' in the subject line, to [EMAIL="planet-science.news@nesta.org.uk"]planet-science.news@nesta.org.uk[/EMAIL]
