Magic Squares

Magic SquaresMagic squares are little-known mathematical curiosities that date back a lot further than you might imagine – as far back as 2,800 BC, in fact!

Since then, they have exerted a great deal of fascination, and help to illustrate the natural beauty of numbers and their close relationship with nature.

Their semi-mystical construction has made them ripe for use within magic too, and we include both the black arts as well as the world of conjuring.

And in the East, they have been used for centuries as a divination tool, in the guise of the Yantra.

Magic Squares pulls all of this information together in one handy reference book, which covers their history, how to construct them, detailed analyses of various types of magic square, many variations on the magic squares theme, presentations and routines that make use of their unique properties, a thorough bibliography of the subject, as well as many appendices that provide additional information.

The book was first written as an “entrance examination” for The Magic Circle, maybe the most famous magic club in the world, for which it received high praise, and since then, it has been made available to magicians and mathematicians the world over.

… a significant addition to the literature of magic squares” (Eddie Dawes, M.I.M.C., in The Magic Circular)
