And, you can start developing well-honed mental skills with more than 80 braintwisting puzzles that test your creativity and smarts. At first it might not seem as if there's enough information to solve them, but if you just persist, you'll come up with the logical answers. Some of the conundrums come from real life: try to figure out how the Greek playwright Aeschylus could have been killed by a tortoise or how the truth about Mary Queen of Scots' baldness was finally revealed. Or, give this a shot: A runner was awarded a prize for winning a marathon. But, the judges disqualified him when they saw a picture of his wristwatch. Why? Happy puzzling! Answer: A picture of the runner early in the race showed him wearing his watch on his right wrist. When he crossed the finishing line it was on his left wrist.

Book Synopsis Tricky Lateral Thinking Puzzles by : Paul Sloane
Download or read book Tricky Lateral Thinking Puzzles written by Paul Sloane and published by Sterling Publishing Company, Inc.. This book was released on 1999 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A man writes the same number, and nothing else, on 20 sheets of paper. Why?" "A man went around the world in a ship. Yet he was always in sight of land. How come?" These are examples of lateral thinking puzzles. You're given a statement about a situation that you have to use as a starting point to arrive at a particular explanation or solution. Often there can be many possible scenarios to explain the puzzle, but the challenge is that you have to find the "right" answer. Typically the puzzles contain insufficient information for you to immediately figure out the solution (clues are provided). When you get stuck, attack the problem from a new direction--think laterally! Not only are these puzzles fun, they also help to develop skills in questioning, deduction, logic, and, of course, lateral thinking. Answers: It's January and he is writing the date of the year on all the checks in his checkbook to avoid putting last year's date by mistake; He was an astronaut in a space ship. 96 pages, 25 b/w illus., 5 3/8 x 8 1/4.

Book Synopsis The Great Book of Riddles: 250 Magnificent Riddles, Puzzles and Brain Teasers by : Peter Keyne
Download or read book The Great Book of Riddles: 250 Magnificent Riddles, Puzzles and Brain Teasers written by Peter Keyne and published by Elsinore Books. This book was released on 2020-03-18 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This family-sized compendium presents 250 of the greatest riddles and puzzles of all time. There are classical logic puzzles, lateral thinking puzzles, “who am I?” riddles, mathematical brain teasers, word ladders, ditloids, and a large selection of illustrated pen and paper, coins, cups, and toothpicks puzzles (please view the preview of this book for a full listing). This is the first time a collection of such breadth has been compiled and formatted especially for e-reader devices. The puzzles have been carefully organized into 25 chapters, and each question is hyperlinked to its solution, to provide utmost ease of navigation. Alongside the world’s most famous riddles, are some lesser known gems, and some brand new puzzles, in print here for the first time. Our aim was to create a definitive compendium of riddles and puzzles to bring enjoyment to people of all ages. We hope you will enjoy unraveling them as much as we enjoyed creating and editing them. Here are a handful of sample riddles: Outside the Box Riddles: You need to divide a round birthday cake into eight pieces, so each of your guests will have something to eat. How can you do this by making only three straight cuts with a knife, and without moving any of the pieces? The king’s two bodyguards developed an ingenious method for assuring the king’s safety. With the king standing between them, they would face in opposite directions; one looking to the west and the other to the east, but at the same time, and without the use of any reflective surfaces, they would both be able to observe the king clearly. How was this possible? Pure Logic Riddles: There are two glasses. One contains water, and the other contains an equal quantity of wine. A teaspoon of water is removed and mixed into the glass of wine. A teaspoon of the wine-water mixture is then removed and mixed into the glass of water. Which of the mixtures is now purer? The sorcerer’s tower was enchanted in such a way that it was able to build itself. Bricks, slates, tiles, and panes of glass, all flew to it of their own accord and danced into position. The tower doubled in size every day until after 100 days it reached a height that provided fine views over the entire realm. How many days did the tower take to reach half its full height? Lateral Thinking Puzzles: Five men are going to church. It starts to rain, and four of the men begin to run. When they arrive at the church, the four men who ran are soaking wet, whereas the fifth man, who didn’t run, is completely dry. How is this possible? Think Twice Riddles: If you are running a race, and you overtake the person in second place, what place do you move into? Word Riddles: SOS is read the same forwards, backwards, and even upside-down. What four-letter word also shares these properties? Number Puzzlers: How many letters are there in the answer to this question? You have an opportunity to buy a hen. In fact, you have been offered a choice between two quite remarkable animals. One of the hens produces six dozen dozen eggs per month, and the other produces a half dozen dozen. Admittedly, both seem impressive. Does it matter which hen you choose? Traditional Poetic Riddles: Five creatures cross a field of snow; But leave a single track behind Whose loops and bows are soon, I know, Unravelled by the mind. Coins, Cups, and Toothpicks Illustrated Riddles: A coin is dropped into an empty bottle and a cork is then inserted in the neck of the bottle. How is it possible to remove the coin without taking out the cork, or breaking the bottle? At Elsinore Books we pride ourselves on creating beautiful e-books, and devote great attention to formatting, and ease of navigation.

Book Synopsis Mental Fitness Puzzles by : Kyle Hendrickson
Download or read book Mental Fitness Puzzles written by Kyle Hendrickson and published by Sterling Publishing (NY). This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Get mentally fit by exercising your brain on these incredible thinking puzzles! Tricky and challenging, they demand a flexible thought-process and an ability to see beyond the obvious. Are you up to the task? For example: While in his local pub, J.P. comes back from the rest room and sees someone stealing his wallet. Instead of confronting the thief, J.P. just stands there and watches him spend the cash. Can you explain this passive response? (Answer: J.P is a counterfeiter who wanted the wallet snatched; he could then check and see if the money could pass as genuine.) Try to figure this one out: Jim develops an elaborate plan to escape from prison. He succeeds, and actually phones the prison guards to tell them where he is. But they don't bring him back to prison! Why? (Jim wasn't a convict, but someone hired by authorities to test their security system.) Yet another treacherously difficult puzzle deals with a "wonder woman" who can move a two-ton piece of equipment with no help (she's an astronaut in a ship with zero gravity, where objects are weightless). If you're having trouble, clue pages will help you on your way! Sterling 96 pages, 100 b/w illus., 5 3/8 x 8 1/4.
