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!

Having fun with numbers and logic,
By A Customer
This review is from: Challenging Brainteasers (Mensa) (Paperback)
It is always rewarding to find that you do have a knowledge of mathematics and logic you have not been aware of. This wonderful little book offers puzzles and enigmas you can solve applying your mathematical abilities. It is clever, interesting and above all fun. Its a teaser and a great companion to idle hours. Great!

Mathematics is for all,
By Martha Osorno (Bogotá, Colombia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Challenging Brainteasers (Mensa) (Paperback)
Today I was able to prove once again that mathematics is not just for a few. Challenging Brainteasers taught me how mathematics are not only fun but accesible to all. Besides enjoyig solving many of these brainteasers it provided me with many fine tools to work with my own children and students problems that I previously thought were imposible. A big clap for Recamán.

Wonderful for the classroom,
By peter martinez (Miami, Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Challenging Brainteasers (Mensa) (Paperback)
I have found this fine collection of puzzles a wonderful source to stimulate my mathematics students. There are problems and puzzles of all levels of difficulty, and on a wide range of topics. Some are classics in a revised form but lots are new to me. All are great fun.
