Can You Solve My Problems?: Ingenious, Perplexing, and Totally Satisfying Math and Logic Puzzles

Puzzle lovers, rejoice!

Bestselling math writer Alex Bellos has a challenge for you: 125 of the worldâ€™s best brainteasers from the last two millennia.

Armed with logic alone, youâ€™ll detect counterfeit coins, navigate river crossings, and untangle family trees. Thenâ€”with just a dash of high school mathâ€”youâ€™ll tie a rope around the Earth, match wits with a cryptic wizard, and use four 4s to create every number from 1 to 50. (It can be done!)

The ultimate casebook for daring puzzlers, Can You Solve My Problems? also tells the story of the puzzleâ€”from ancient China to Victorian England to modern-day Japan. Grab your pencil and get puzzling!
