Intriguing Puzzles in Math and Logic

Wit, imagination and ingenuity abound this compilation sure to delight puzzle fans. This collection features challenging puzzles involving topology, geometry, everyday physics, algebra, paper cutting and folding, crossword puzzles and more. Here is an example of what you can find inside this book: "A wolf is crossing a wasteland and arrives in a starving condition halfway across, and too weak to go farther, when he finds an enclosure of iron bars completely surounding some fat sheep -too fat to get through the bars, natch. The wolf is so thin he can but he knows he will be too fat to get out if he eats enough to keep him going to cross the wasteland. The fence is too high to jump and is umbreakable. The sheherd will be coming the next week with a gun, and the wolf can not undergo another starvation period like the last. What is his best strategy?" The book is written in an entertaining and concise language. If you like this kind of challenging mathematical teasers and puzzles, you may want to try "Challenging mathematical teasers" by J. A. H. Hunter.
