A marvelously varied assortment of brain teasers! Regarded as the outstanding puzzle collection in the history of Russian mathematics, The Moscow Puzzles offers stimulating entertainment that will challenge your problem-solving skills!

This is, quite simply, the best and most popular puzzle book ever published in the Soviet Union. Since its first appearance in 1956 there have been eight editions as well as translations from the original Russian into Ukrainian, Estonian, Lettish, and Lithuanian. Almost a million copies of the Russian version alone have been sold.

Part of the reason for the book's success is its marvelously varied assortment of brainteasers ranging from simple "catch" riddles to difficult problems (none, however, requiring advanced mathematics). Many of the puzzles will be new to Western readers, while some familiar problems have been clothed in new forms. Often the puzzles are presented in the form of charming stories that provide non-Russian readers with valuable insights into contemporary Russian life and customs. In addition, Martin Gardner, former editor of the Mathematical Games Department, Scientific American, has clarified and simplified the book to make it as easy as possible for an English-reading public to understand and enjoy. He has been careful, moreover, to retain nearly all the freshness, warmth, and humor of the original.

Lavishly illustrated with over 400 clear diagrams and amusing sketches, this inexpensive edition of the first English translation will offer weeks or even months of stimulating entertainment. It belongs in the library of every puzzlist or lover of recreational mathematics.

Published in 1956 by Boris A. Kordemsky, a high school mathematics teacher, this mammoth collection of brain teasers became the best and most popular puzzle book ever published in the Soviet Union.

Tackle 359 mathematical recreations that are sure to excite your inner problem-solver! From simple "catch" riddles to challenging puzzles, you'll be rewarded with mind stimulating entertainment and satisfaction.

Enjoy stories that provide non-Russian readers with an inside look at customs and culture. The Moscow collection of puzzles is a window into the world of Russia.
