Ingram
Faced with the unrelieved tedium of a hospital stay, a Russian soldier recuperating from his World War II injuries begged one of his former instructors for something to occupy his mind. The professor replied with "Three Pearls of Number Theory", a trio of mathematical problems as absorbing today as they were more than 50 years ago.
