Our lateral thinking experts, Sloane and MacHale, have concocted another terrific selection of thought-provoking, mind-bending puzzles designed to get your synapses sizzling. Each mental teaser presents a mini-scenario, and it's up to you to tease out the secret twist. Plus, to make this book extra special, about half the puzzles—the "Lateral Factuals"—are based on real news stories, history, science facts, and more. They're not easy—but thinking laterally has never been such crafty fun.
