User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐My entire family likes puzzles of all sorts, and I bought this as a gift for one of my sons, a physicist and engineer, who also collects and designs wooden puzzles. (The book was published in honor of Martin Gardner’s 90th birthday!)The puzzles are a collection contributed by mathematicians, magicians, and others. They range from math to tricks to mazes to wooden puzzles, all kinds of things. History of puzzles throughout the ages is shown. Explanations accompany the puzzles.The reader should be well versed in mathematics to get the most out of the book.It’s a really nice book for anyone who likes convoluted puzzles, and the text is well written. There is a list of the contributors in the back, with a short paragraph about each one. This is interesting, too.I really like it, (I looked through it, of course, before I wrapped it up!), and it will keep you very well entertained.
