The Gozinta Boxes have captivated magicians since Lubor Fiedler first introduced the trick in the 1970 FISM convention. In this mystery, a small box fits inside a large box but paradoxically, the large box also 'goes in da' the little box. Lubor Fiedler invented this topological mystery when he ran out of space in his house.
The Box Goes-In-Da Box gives a detailed history of the Gozinta Boxes plot. Since Lubor introduced the idea, many versions have been released on the market. The book also contains detailed instructions on how to create Gozinta Boxes, using nothing but some cardboard, a knife and some glue. For the mathematically-minded reader, the book provides the detailed workings of gozinta geometry, including a version with three boxes.
This book provides a complete overview of this famous magic trick with detailed descriptions of its history, science and art.
