Here is an easy to understand update to one of the original solutions to that frustrating puzzle - the Rubik's Cube. The puzzle, with its six different colored sides, is an enigma. It looks simple, but it's not. Don't fret, with this guide you can solve it, once and for all. "Gott'cha! Rubik's Cube" is: - Concise, but complete and unambiguous - Thoroughly illustrated with full-color photos - Based on four formulas - Not color dependent (does not require a pre-determined "home" color position) For those who want to jump start the solution, this 4th edition includes a new Quick Start - Intense Cube Boot Camp section that highlights where each formula affects a region of the cube. You observe (starting with a new, solved, cube) just how the squares move during each of the four formulas. With this teaching technique you are reversing the solution strategy, and you actually "unsolve" a solved cube and then re-solve it. Armed with this knowledge, you can solve it from any state. A Cube Lore section follows, detailing the history of the cube and revealing interesting facts about the 3D puzzle. It is all spelled out and illustrated for you here. All you need are the two R's (Reading and Rotating) to get the third R solved. You CAN solve it. And when you do, you'll be amazed that you had not done this earlier. And then go out and do all those other great things you always wanted to do in your life!
