To solve these inventive brainteasers, your brain has to be in tip-top shape. Warm up with some (slightly) easier puzzles: beginning in the left corner of a box with grids, try to reach the bottom right square. You may pass only through the left and right sides of small squares, but not through their top or bottom. And you can't go through the black squares at all. Another challenge involves four dice, all stacked up. Can you find a pattern that lets you figure out how many pips are on the base side? Arrange the "magical dominoes" precisely and mathematically; do the equations to figure out how. There are also unusual card tricks, "cut-it" puzzles that involve reconstructing figures that have been broken up, and three-dimensional conundrums. As you work each one out, you'll feel yourself getting smarter every minute.

What a bargain! At more than 700 puzzle-packed pages, this huge, value-priced collection should keep any solver happy...and busy for a very long time. It contains brain-busting challenges of almost every type: math logic problems for the numerically inclined; absolutely amazing lateral thinking conundrums; really great critical thinking bafflers; and mind-boggling word puzzles. Here's just a small sample of what's inside: The 22nd and 24th presidents of the United States had the same mother and the same father, but were not brothers. How could this be so? Stumped? That's because it's one man--Grover Cleveland--who was reelected after skipping a term. And that's just an easy warm-up!

Puzzle these out! Math and logic become more fun than ever when they're turned into brainteasing games. Some of these puzzles use cards or marbles; others have diagrams, grids, and lively illustrations; still more present their questions as a story or riddle. Here are just two examples: Look at this sentence: Dale is wrong. Using all these letters, can you spell a single word? Or try Non-aligned Pawns: How must the 8 white and 8 black pawns in a chess set be placed on a board so that no three pawns end up in the same horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line? They'll really test your smarts!
