Marcel Danesi explores the psychology of puzzles and puzzling, with scores of classic examples. His pioneering book is both entertaining and enlightening." -- Will Shortz, Crossword Editor, The New York Times
"... Puzzle fanatics will enjoy the many riddles, illusions, cryptograms and other mind-benders offered for analysis." -- Psychology Today
"... a bristlingly clear... always intriguing survey of the history and rationale of puzzles.... [A] splendid study...." -- Knight Ridder Newspapers
