Summary
Details

Calling all puzzlers... From mathematics to word puzzles, from logic to lateral thinking,

veteran puzzle maker Derrick Niederman delights in tackling the

trickiest brainteasers in a new way. Among the old chestnuts he cracks

wide open are the following classics:

Knights and knaves

The monk and the mountain

The dominoes and the chessboard

The unexpected hanging

The Tower of Hanoi

Using real-world analogies, infectious humor, and a fresh approach,

this deceptively simple volume will challenge, amuse, enlighten, and

surprise even the most experienced puzzle solver.
