Abstract: In How to solve it, George Polya revealed how the mathematical method of demonstrating a proof or finding an unknown can be of help in attacking any problem that can be "reasoned" out - from building a bridge to winning a game of anagrams. This book also popularized heuristics, the art and science of discovery and invention.
