Mathematical Problems of Statistical Mechanics and Dyanamics A Collection of Surveys / edited by R.L. Dobrushin.

Approach your problems from the It isn't that they can't see the solution. right end and begin with the answers. It is that they can't see the problem. Then one day, perhaps you will find the final question. G. K. Chesterton. The Scandal of Father Brown 'The point of a Pin'....
