The problems presented here range from pure puzzles to a more traditional mathematical type of question, but all are somehow special, posed with the intent of giving the reader something interesting to think about, with the promise of an entertaining moment of elucidation and enlightenment at the end.Contents: Number DigitsA Little Bit of Algebra — Word Problems and VariablesBuilding with Bricks and BlocksSportsCirclesLogicFractionsPercentagesOur Three-Dimensional WorldMoneyIts About TimeLetter Puzzles and Digit PuzzlesHow Far, How Fast, How LongTrianglesQuadrilaterals and PolygonsDivisibilityCutting and TilingSequencesCounting Things
