A walk through history's most mind-boggling puzzles
Ever since the Sphinx asked his legendary riddle of Oedipus,
riddles, conundrums, and puzzles of all sizes have kept humankind
perplexed and amused. The Liar Paradox and the Towers of Hanoi
takes die-hard puzzle mavens on a tour of the world's most
enduringly intriguing braintwisters, from K?nigsberg's Bridges and
the Hanoi Towers to Fibonacci's Rabbits, the Four Color Problem,
and the Magic Square. Each chapter introduces the basic puzzle,
discusses the mathematics behind it, and includes exercises and
answers plus additional puzzles similar to the one under
discussion. Here is a veritable kaleidoscope of puzzling
labyrinths, maps, bridges, and optical illusions that will keep
aficionados entertained for hours.
