Wonderful Answers to Weird Questions

Beschreibung

Based on Tom Scott's hit LATERAL podcast, this massive collection of lateral thinking puzzles features 100 questions (40 chosen from the best of the podcast, 60 that are brand-new) and 20 warm-up brainteasers, all featuring real-world scenarios with unexpected, fascinating answers. Questions are presented with some helpful suggestions to help you get your thoughts moving in the right direction--but even if you don't solve the puzzle, reading the solution lets you share in the "aha!" moment, accompanied by fun supplementary details and extra commentary that celebrates insight and problem-solving with enthusiasm, curiosity, and humor.
