Braind-bending Puzzles to Challenge and Entertain,
By Alexander Markham (Las Vegas, NV USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Logic Puzzles to Bend Your Brain (Paperback)
I was first introduced to logic puzzles during my last years of grade school and I've been addicted to them ever since. I bought this book hoping for some challenging, fun puzzles and I have yet to be disappointed. There are approximately 64 puzzles in all which utilize a variety of skills including basic mathematics (e.g. averaging, fraction and decimal conversions, data comparisons and conversions, sorting). Don't be fooled: although a few random puzzles are very simple, many of them are quite complex and require careful thought and lots of critical thinking in addition to the math skills to reach a solution. Take the word of a civil engineer, this book will have your mind bending for hours. I also recommend that you magnify and xerox or recreate the charts that are provided to help you work out the solution (include space for notes). And make sure you use a pencil and a big eraser.
Solutions are provided in the back of the book for all problems.

Not for logic problem aficionados,

This review is from: Logic Puzzles to Bend Your Brain (Paperback)
True fans of logic problems will not enjoy this book. The puzzles aren't particularly challenging, most of the solving grids aren't set up properly, and there are numerous errors. I find the problems to be like those found on fifth grade homework. I was expecting something akin to those found in the Penny Press logic puzzle magazines, but this was not so. To the publisher: correct the mistakes before your next printing!
