All real life mathematics is problem solving. And all those
fascinated by puzzles are problem solvers at heart. But thinking
mathematically is a skill we have to learn and one which it is easy
to forget. Recreational mathematicians and students can practise
problem solving in different ways. In this book solving puzzles is
practised in a different way from most books they will have seen
before: # Readers get no clues to what the puzzle is about # They
may take hours or even days to work out what is being asked of them
# Even after that, some problems may have no solution The result of
this challenge is a really challenging book that will fascinate
anyone interested in puzzles and recreational mathematicians in
particular. This volume contains 36 puzzles ranging from quite easy
to quite difficult. The sister volume More Without Words:
Mathematical Puzzles to Confound and Delight is also available -
containing 36 more puzzles with fewer easy and more testing ones.
