This comprehensive bibliography covers every aspect of Gardner's lengthy publishing career, from 1930 to 2010, and features detailed descriptions and indices of his writings on mathematics and many other topics. Editor Dana Richards worked directly with Gardner on this project from 1978 until Gardner's death; it draws on the two hundred boxes of Gardner's mathematical papers held in the Stanford archives
