Description: Following the huge success of Brian Bolt's earlier book, The Amazing Mathematical Amusement Arcade, this new collection contains over one hundred puzzles to capture the imagination. They range widely from matchstick and coin puzzles to railway shunting problems, number puzzles, chess-board puzzles, topological impossibilities, tricks, games, and magic squares. Some are variations on repeating themes while other original ones will challenge even the most ardent puzzle lover. The second part of the book contains detailed commentary giving hints and solutions. This book is suitable for readers aged 13 to adult.
