Sudoku has become an addiction for millions—and that’s great, because mind games help keep our brains in good working order. But even though the rules are simple, many solvers need some help when cracking the more complicated grids. That support is here in abundance…enough to take to you into the realm of the Very Difficult and even the Fiendish. Using this attractive guide, solvers will smoothly progress through 52 stages, each with a self-testing and timed puzzle to monitor progress. Chock-full of tactics and tips, and drawing on strategies evolved by Sudoku experts from Japan, Europe, and the United States, this little book takes you to the top.

Summary: GOOD BOOK
Comment: Don't think it would take one a whole year, or 52 weeks to deal conquer all the techniques presented here. SOME are easy which SUDOKU solvers already use, without giving a name to them. Some techniques are not easily explained, and I had difficulty understanding the steps. All in all, a good little book, which includes puzzles in which to try the techniques.

Summary: If you want to understand suduko. READ THIS!
Comment: This book is the only thing you need to become proficient at solving Sudoku's.
I recently started practicing Sudoku because Bridge, Pinochle, etc were not mentally challenging enough.
I read two other books who talked like a cross between a lawyer, and a mathematician. I will not give the names of those books because I am talking about THIS book.
I like this book because he gives strategies you can use such as cross hatching, virtual cross hatching, X wings, XY wings, and jelly fish, and more importantly he has a puzzle on the page right there so you can put those strategies into practice right then and there.
I do not like writing in books so I copies the puzzle and worked them on a dry erase board.
With this book I have gone from the easy puzzles up to moderate, and now I am working the easy to moderate squigly Sudoku's in just a few short weeks!
I prefer to work squiggly puzzles because it forces the Sudoku player to throw the very basic techniques like cross hatching out the window and attack the puzzle wholisticly

Summary: Mastering
Comment: I look for Sudoku books with three qualities. First, I want puzzles that have only one solution. If I find a book that includes puzzles with more than one solution I discard it. Two, I want books with grids large enough that I can enter candidates in the cells. Third, I want books with challenging puzzles. Many of the descriptions on Amazon omit such info.
I prefer grids that are about 4 ½" x 4 ½". The grids in my newspaper are about 3" x 3" (which is tolerable because not many candidates are needed).
Paul Stephens' Mastering Sudoku Week by Week: The puzzles have only one solution; the grids are about 3" x 3". There are 52 puzzles in this book. This is an excellent instruction book for those who want to learn to solve difficult puzzles.
As another reviewer noted, the font size and style could be improved; as is, it is often difficult to read.
