A fun book of brainteasers!
By Sandeep Sharma on April 10, 2000
Format: Paperback
Wheels, Life and ... is an enthralling and thoroughly enjoyable book for anyone interesed in math brainteasers. It covers a wide range of intriguing topics, from simple word puzzles to complex mathematical ideas. Knotted threads and geometric fantasies mingle effortlessly with Zeno's paradox and the challenging game of life! I couldn't stop reading one teaser after another, wracking my brain on some tantalising clue. If you're fascinated by mindgames, buy it. Its a Martin Gardner!

If you like to think, this is the book for you
By Avid Reader on December 27, 2003
Format: Paperback
Gardner has penned another whimsical, informative and totally amusing book (again). The entire thing is a MENSA member's dream come true - a work equally at home in the entertainment and education fields.
This is not just one dreary problem after another. Instead, Gardner offers commentary on subjects as far-ranging as time, molecules, chess, cards and electricity. And always he manages to pause for a quick puzzle or two (or three). Terrific read.
