This is a great book.
It teaches solving mathematical problems. It is mostly focused on high-school problems, but it is applicable to most types of mathematical problems out there. The author has developed a nice heuristic framework for tackling problems and has done a wonderful job of explaining it. It's not just the methods � exposition is also a great takeaway from this read.
On the downside, the book was written in 1945 and sometime it shows. It's more cute than a nuisance, though :)
