Cartea lui e și nu e autobiografie, e și nu e joc, e și nu e puzzle. După cinci decenii în care existența aproape că i s-a confundat cu jucăria logică 3D pe care a creat-o din pură curiozitate, Rubik privește în urmă și scrie onest, cu emoție și un strop de umor, despre ce înseamnă să te lași sedus de frumusețea unei probleme, să jubilezi în fața eleganței sau a gingășiei sale, despre cum joaca e unul dintre cele mai serioase lucruri din lume, despre arta de a pune întrebări, despre cum nu complexitatea, ci abia simplitatea e un mister.

Vous connaissez tous cet objet iconique, l'avez très certainement déjà manipulé. Le Rubik's Cube a suscité l'engouement de plus d'un milliard de personnes depuis 1974. Mais d'où vient-il ? Et comment expliquer un tel succès ? Son créateur, adepte des puzzles et des casse-têtes en tous genres, retrace la folle aventure de son invention. Il livre une véritable réflexion sur les mécanismes du jeu, les avantages de la symétrie, les vertus de la concentration, et nous montre que le Rubik's Cube est bien plus qu'un simple passe-temps.

Er war das Kultobjekt der 80er Jahre: der Zauberwürfel, auch "Rubik's Cube" genannt. Bis heute ist sein Bann ungebrochen. Jeder siebte Mensch auf der Erde hat mit ihm gespielt, das sind über eine Milliarde. Unzählige Bücher sind bereits über ihn geschrieben worden. Doch einer hat bislang geschwiegen: der Erfinder, Ernö Rubik. Nun erzählt er vom Zauberwürfel und seiner Welt. Er beschreibt sein Leben mit dem Würfel, erzählt dessen Geschichte und fragt, was wir aus ihr lernen können.

In Cubed Rubik covers more than just his journey to inventing his eponymous cube. He makes a case for always being an amateur (which he considers himself). He discusses the inevitability of problems during any act of invention. He reveals what it was like to experience the astonishing worldwide success of an object he made purely for his own amusement. And he offers what he thinks it means to be a true creator (hint: persistence). Steeped in the wisdom and also the humility of a born inventor, Cubed offers a unique look at the imperfect science of creation.

Erno Rubik was a child when he first became obsessed with puzzles of all kinds. "Puzzles", he writes, "bring out important qualities in each of us: concentration, curiosity, a sense of play, the eagerness to discover a solution". To Rubik, puzzles aren't just games - they're creativity machines. He encourages us to embrace our inner curiosity and find the puzzles that surround us in our everyday lives. "If you are determined, you will solve them", he writes. Rubik's own puzzle, the Cube, has been solved by millions worldwide for more than 40 years....
