"This is a marvellous book. The diversity of possible puzzles that can be given with these very limited resources, which are basically some paper and scissors, is overwhelming, and the challenges are sometimes very tough. Even the two-star problems may be hard for an untrained puzzler. This is medicine against boredom on long rainy days, but be careful not to get addicted or it may suck up your less empty and sunny days as well." See Full Review European Mathematical Society "The title of this book fairly accurately explains its content and purpose. There is enough variation in difficulty that the book should be enjoyable for both novices and puzzle enthusiasts of all ages. While some of the puzzles or activities will be familiar to enthusiasts, there are plenty of original problems from the authors as well. Overall the book is excellent and should be enjoyable to a large audience. I even tested the book by handing it and some paper squares to some teenagers on a long car trip. They stayed fairly absorbed in it for the bulk of the trip." See Full Review Mathematical Association of America

LEARN WHILE PLAYING The puzzles in this unique book are fresh, innovative and compelling. The puzzle pieces are building units for puzzles that boost mental dexterity with a variety of challenges from various fields of recreational mathematics. Come on and play with symmetry puzzles, cover-up puzzles and self-similarity puzzles to increase your skill and mental acuity!
NEW PUZZLE DESIGNS To add variety and challenge, some of the puzzles may not use all seven pieces of the Tangram set, while others may use pieces from two or more sets.
