Puzzles and paradoxes
These marvelous, stimulating games for the mind offer an array of problems and solutions as artfully formed as poems and melodies. Each chapter presents a series of thematically related brain-teasers: difficult journeys, featuring unlikely passengers and inadequate transport; geometric paradoxes; pouring liquid puzzles; cube and color arrangement puzzles; and calendar paradoxes. Author T. H. O'Beirne provides detailed solutions that prepare readers for puzzles of even greater complexity.
