Recommended books for preparation of IMO

Hello, can anyone recommend me any book for preparation of IMO and other mathematical olympiad which could help me in enhancing my problem solving skills. I am looking for a book which contains theory as well as previous year problems because many books contains no theory or explanation but only questions. You may suggest me either ebook or printed book. You are requested to give the url for ebook. I will be thankful if you give the url of any online shopping website in case it is a printed book. Thanks and love Brilliant

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

i am not referring to imo conducted by sofworld. I am referring to International Mathematics Olympiad which is an international competition held across the world. It is very difficult and different from that conducted by sof.
