Some books are placed on each other. Someone first, reverses the upper book. Then he reverses the $2$ upper books. Then he reverses the $3$ upper books and continues like this. After he reversed all the books, he starts this operation from the first. Prove that after finite number of movements, the books become exactly like their initial configuration.
