Bei dem englischen Mathematiker john Edenser Littlewood steht in der Einleitung zu Mathematician’s Miscellany, einer Sammlung mathematischer Miscellen, unter anderem der Satz: 'Ein guter mathematischer Scherz ist immer besser - und zwar sogar als Mathematik besser - als ein ganzes Dutzend mittelmäßiger gelehrter Ab­ handlungen. ' Mathematische Scherze bilden den Inhalt dieses Buches - wenn man großzügig ist und alles als Scherz gelten läßt, was ein gewisses Element des Vergnüglichen enthält. Es gibt kaum einen Mathematiker, der nicht eine gewisse Freude an mathematischen Spielereien hätte; aber die meisten lassen sich auf solche Spielereien natürlich nur mit Maßen und innerhalb vernünftiger Grenzen ein. Daneben aber gibt es auch Menschen, auf die die Faszination des mathematischen Spiels beinahe wie ein Rauschgift wirken kann. Lushin, der Held von Nabokovs großartigem Schach­ spielerroman 'Lushins Verteidigung' (The Defense), ist solch ein Mensch. Er ist vom Schachspiel (das ja unleugbar ein Produkt des mathematischen Spieltriebs ist) dermaßen besessen, daß er nach und nach völlig den Kontakt zur Wirklichkeit ver­ liert und zuguterletzt die erbärmliche Partie seines Lebens durch einen Sprung aus dem Fenster - ein 'Selbstmatt' - beenden muß.
