## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I'd highly recommend this book
*by M***W on January 11, 2017*

I'm a huge fan of using novel brain teasers as a form of mental exercise, and boy does Gardner deliver on the goods in this weighty tome. The problems differ widely in content and form. Some can be solved quickly by merely employing just a mental trick or two, such as picking up on a pun or ambiguity. Often, there's a beauty and humour that permeates such problems. Other problems are incredibly technical and academic, but redeemed by the unwavering enthusiasm with which Gardner presents them. For anyone looking for novel mental challenges backed up by an author with a winning personality and genuine enthusiasm for what he does, I'd highly recommend this book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent book of puzzles.
*by J***. on January 9, 2024*

The puzzles are challenging and interesting!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ excellent in content and scope
*by B***R on April 15, 2010*

This is a refreshing collection that, while scarcely new (and it admits to being, with scant exception, a rehash of previous material), presents the puzzles in a delightful format. The organization into sections--chess puzzles, physics puzzles, word puzzles, etc.--is refreshing and an incisive aid to locating just the type of tickler that appeals to you at the moment, and the diagrams, typography, and even feel of the paper are all first-class. In summary, this is a comprehensive and handsome volume that would do well on the intelligent person's bookshelf, even if the material isn't as mathematically sophisticated as Joukowsky airfoils.
