The Puzzler's Dilemma

Second-Hand

Excellent condition

From the Lighthouse of Alexandria to Monty Hall, a Fresh Look at Classic Conundrums of Logic, Mathematics, and Life

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 humour, and a fresh approach, this deceptively simple volume will challenge, amuse, enlighten, and surprise even the most experienced puzzle solver.
