Pickover explains why Chinese emperors, Babylonian astrologer-priests, prehistoric cave people in France, and ancient Mayans were convinced that magic squares--arrays filled with numbers or letters in certain arrangements--held the secret of the universe. Readers are treated to a colorful history of magic squares and similar structures, their construction, and classification.
