Synopsis:

"We never grow tired of good news how come' mysteries of this kind....These story brainteasers are often solved in groups...with solvers asking yes-or-no questions of the puzzle poser (the one holding this book, perhaps). A novel feature of this volume is a Clues' section containing sample questions and answers, allowing you to play along solitaire."--Games World of Puzzles. 96 pages, 24 b/w illus., 5 3/8 x 8 1/4.

Synopsis: Lateral thinking involves logic and imagination at the same time, the attempt to find a logical explanation for strange circumstances. For example: A policeman saw a truck driver clearly going the worng way down a one-way street but he didn't try to stop him. Why not? The truck driver was walking. Four types of puzzles are featured, from the fairly simple "Tempting" and "Intriguing", to the tougher "Diabolical" and "Grisly". Cartoons illustrate the puzzles.
