The Magic Garden Of George B And Other Logic Puzzles
"This latest book by Raymond Smullyan follows a similar format, offering a mixture of interesting puzzles, "monkey tricks" designed to catch the reader out, dreadful jokes, and insights into serious mathematics. If you have enjoyed Smullyan's previous books this one is self-recommending." London Mathematical Society Newsletter "A reader without prior experience with mathematical logic would likely...

But there is indeed a solution - moreover, one that requires a chain of lesser puzzles to be solved first. The reader is thus taken on a journey through a maze of subsidiary problems that has all the earmarks of an entertaining detective story. This book leads the unwary reader into deep logical waters through seductively entertaining logic puzzles. One example is Boolean algebra with such weird looking equations as 1+1=0 - a subject which today plays a vital role, not only in mathematical systems, but also in computer science and artificial intelligence.
