Book Reviews of Sudoku: Explaining the Fifteen Steps of the Francis' Rules for Sudoku

Book Review: Fine for Beginners
Summary: 3 Stars

This book should be described better. It is a beginner's guide to sudoku, with many of the usual suggestions. Except by inviting the solver to use trial-and-error at a level that is too easy to require it, it does not really present any sort of new or different approach.

Some, especially beginners, may find the number-by-number solving instructions helpful. The author does walk through the basic rules of sudoku very straightforwardly. Still, the book stops far short of any serious solving techniques. If the author's "fifteen steps" help to solve hard puzzles, he has not shown me how they do it.
