Sinopsis | ISBN: 9780486425580 | |
Henry Dudeney (1847-1930) had a talent for finding solutions to problems that seemed unsolvable. This unique book presents 110 of his puzzles not as individual problems but as incidents in connected stories. The first 31 problems are posed by the pilgrims in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales; additional puzzles are presented using different characters in other venues. Many require only the ability to exercise logical or visual skills; others offer a stimulating challenge to the mathematically advanced. In all cases, solutions are provided at the end |
