Innovator Ivan Moscovich's number puzzles are as spectacular looking as they are stimulating. Moscovich has been designing and inventing inspired puzzles, games, toys, teaching aids, and hands-on science museum exhibits for the past 50 years. "In collecting and creating puzzles," writes Moscovich, "I favor those that are more than just fun, preferring instead puzzles that offer opportunities for intellectual satisfaction and learning experiences, as well as provoking curiosity and creative thinking."
For the Mastermind Collection, Moscovich has gathered many of his ingenious inventions, as well as imaginative mind bogglers created by other remarkable puzzlemakers. This series covers a wide range of mathematical ideas, through both classic and original puzzles, games, problems and more.
The Monty Hall Problem and Other Puzzles includes the famous game show problem, based on seemingly very simple principles of probability; "Police Chase," which will require you to think about how the center of a triangle is defined; and "Magic Arrows," a variation on the classical 4x4 magic square.
These imaginative puzzles are a treat for the eye and the mind.
