What is Problems For Puzzlebusters about?

If Tom and Dick are Harry's two brothers-in-law, can Tom's wife be Dick's wife's sister-in-law? Why can't all the people in a stadium clap in unison? Why are so many comic-strip characters left-handed? Does the sequence 0, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, . . . include any numbers that end in 2? Why is it hard to see into a car with heavily tinted windows, even though the people inside have no difficulty seeing out? What would be the worst day of the year on which to be told that you had just won a big cash prize? PROBLEMS FOR PUZZLEBUSTERS, published by Enigmatics Press, uses brain-twisters like these and elementary mathematics to teach you how to solve all kinds of problems. Part I summarizes the methods and illustrates them with examples, giving step-by-step instructions on getting started, working out the details, and checking the answers. Part II contains one of the largest recreational problem collections ever over 600 problems, many never published before--everything from riddles to the risks in Russian roulette, suitable for classroom use or your own amusement. Part III gives solutions obtained via the techniques described in Part I, explaining how to use what you have learned to solve
