Figures for Fun

To read and enjoy this book it will suffice to possess a modest knowledge of mathematics, i.e., knowledge of arithmetical rules and elementary geometry. Very few problems require the ability of forming and solving equations - and the simplest at that.
The table of contents, as you may see, is quite diversified: the subjects range from a motley collection of conundrums and mathhematical stunts to useful practical problems on counting and measuring.
