Publisher's Synopsis

Surprising in their effects and confusing in their unexpected dead ends, the games and puzzles in this original collection focus on basic concepts of geometrical and topological transformations. The fun-filled, increasingly complex paradoxes include puzzles involving the property of shapes in the plane and examples of deformations of surfaces in Euclidean space.
