Hexaflexagons, Probability Paradoxes, and the Tower of Hanoi is the inaugural volume in The New Martin Gardner Mathematical Library series. Based off of Gardener's enormously popular Scientific American columns, his puzzles and challenges can now fascinate a whole new generation Paradoxes and paper-folding, Moebius variations and mnemonics, fallacies, magic square, topological curiosities, parlor tricks, and games ancient and modern, from Polyminoes, Nim, Hex, and the Tower of Hanoi to four-dimensional ticktacktoe. These mathematical recreations, clearly and cleverly presented by Martin Gardner, delight and perplex while demonstrating principles of logic, probability, geometry, and other fields of mathematics. Now the author, in consultation with experts, has added updates to all the chapters, including new game variations, mathematical proofs, and other developments and discoveries.Binding Type: Paperback

Not only is this THE best face, hand, & body cream, it's incredibly inexpensive!
This cream is a miracle! I found using a small amount (pea-sized, max) on my face and it's lovely! Within a few minutes, my face is soft, smooth, neither sticky or greasy, nor is it dry. I LOVE it! It's also great on my hands (again, only a tiny bit--less than the "pea-sized" amount that I had I applied to my face.) If you find that your face feels greasy in a few minutes, that means you put too much on. It spreads well and easily, but keep it to a small amount. And for the price (approx. $5 per big tube!) it's the best bargain around! I even apply it around my eyes (not too close to the lash line; you don't want to get any IN your eyes.) Just the tender skin around outside your eyes, and that never stings or burns--this cream never hurts me anywhere I apply it.

Smooth and Soothing
Much nicer than you'd expect from the description (Beef tallow). This white, skin-friendly moisturizing cream is odorless and not greasy. It feels good on the skin and sinks in readily. I plan to buy this again.

Keeps skin moisturized like a lotion
This is quite a lot larger than I thought it would be when I picked it. It's sized like a lotion bottle. My skin can get dry sometimes, especially in the winter so I picked this up to help prevent it from cracking. This is working well so far.
It's unscented which is what I prefer. I'm not fond of scented oils or lotions on my face and hands. This works very well as a lotion. It melts and absorbs into the skin without leaving any extra color or residue. There's a little bit of a oil sheen to it, but it doesn't stand out. It does not have the oil or grease feeling to it which is great.
It's worked really well this winter. My hands and face are moisturized and looking great. I got this in December 2025 and it expires October 2028. I'll probably use it up before it expires.
