He provides clear, easy-to-follow instructions and photos for 30 fascinating paper puzzles and brain-teasers that you can create using inexpensive folded paper polygons.
First, you''ll learn to fold the "Einstein" polygon from a single sheet of paper. This shape stumped mathematicians for many decades, but a clever hat-shaped version was finally discovered in 2023.
