Book Description

October 1997
In her most delightful book yet, Marilyn vos Savant offers readers a taste of what she does best--ten years of her wildly popular Parade column, "Ask Marilyn." Presenting what Americans like to read every Sunday morning over breakfast, vos Savant covers such wide-ranging topics as religion, science, and false illusions.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting questions, intelligently answered., June 22, 1998
By A Customer
Overall, the book was excellent. Marilyn vos Savant answers various questions submitted by the public, and the book reprints articles from her column. I enjoyed the various chapters, which included categories of brain-teasers and mundane trivia. I was disappointed in her answer of why kamikaze pilots wore helmets--I expect that they wore it for similar reasons that they wore the rest of their uniform. :-) I'm still puzzling over why a 200 pound person couldn't juggle three one pound melons on a raft with a 202 pound capacity, given that juggling a single melon requires exertion of an extra pound of force--after all, when all melons are in the air, there is no force on the raft except the weight of the person, so as long as the melons remain aloft long enough for the raft to float back to equilibrium, I don't see why any number of melons couldn't be juggled. Ah well... it's good to have answers that keep me thinking. :-)
