This 2004 paperback is in new condition. It has one slightly dinged corner on the lower right hand side. The spine is uncracked. A very nice copy of a very useful book for young chess players. When I was removing an old price sticker, I created a rub on the edge of the spine - leaving a narrow white line on where there should be solid red. I was trying to get any sticky residue off. So the book is very clean at this point to be sure.

An old favorite--Mensa Math & Logic Puzzles--gets a brand-new look: it's now in color!And the puzzles are fantastic: they're the kind of challenge found at the World Puzzle Championships, and they require no language to solve. For example, you are given a grid of dots that has some numbers (0, 1, 2, or 3) in them. You need to connect the dots in one continuous path so that each number is surrounded by that many lines. So a "3" means that three of the four sides around it must be connected. All the puzzles are similar abstract exercises, and all have unique solutions that can be reached using pure logic. They're difficult--and really satisfying exercise for your brain.

Every single one is here, and much more too, including the exclusive Gordonian logic methods (Gordonian rectangles and Gordonian polygons) that will turn even the hardest puzzles into a breeze.
