Magic squares cornered

Nature, 1998, vol. 395, issue 6699, 216-217

Abstract: A magic square is an arrangement of numbers in which all the rows and columns add up to the same total, the magic constant. But some are more magic than others, having other extraordinary properties, and 'most perfect' squares are at the top of the hierarchy. There is now a method of constructing all most-perfect magic squares.
