Jim's Review
Listen up, bookworms — this little book is secretly about how to think better at EVERYTHING, not just math. Pólya's four-step method sounds simple, but once it clicks, you'll be solving problems you never thought you could touch. "What is the unknown? What are the data? What is the condition?" works as a daily mantra. It's been in print since 1945 for a reason. Four worms — a timeless classic.
