Problem Solving Island : Wickelgren, How to Solve Problems
How to Solve Problems , by Wayne Wickelgren, presents several strategies for solving problems. The first steps that Wickelgren suggests are similar to the early phases of problem solving that Thinking Mathematically describes. Wickelgren advocates working towards a precise understanding of the question before trying to answer it.

Also, the use of general problem-solving methods often indi¬ cates the properties of the principles you need to know from the sub¬ ject matter that the problem is attempting to teach and test. Thus, whether you succeed of fail in solving any particular problem, the effort will be interesting and educational.

In general, this is quite a good book in understanding a more mechanistic approach to problem solving. In the first few chapter the book delved into the definition of problem itself. This book define problem as composed of three types of information (i) given expressions, (ii) Operation that transform that givens and (iii) goal expressions.

A running theme in this essay is the recognition that the development of economic theory seems to go hand in hand with advances in the theory and practice of computing, which is a catalyst for the move away from too much reliance on any kind of mathematics for the formalisation of economic entities that is inconsistent with the mathematical, methodological and epistemological foundations of ...

3.2.3 Wickelgren's General Problem Solving Strategies. Wickelgren's view of problem solving is based on information processing theories such as GPS. According to this view, a formal problem contains three types of information: A statement of the initial state. Description of the goal state. Description of set of operation or transformations.

Furthermore, even though a strategy can give you a general idea, there are so many variations of that strategy that two forms can appear to be different strategies. Wickelgren is a psychologist rather than a mathematician, so his approach to teaching problem solving is different from what most mathematicians employ.
