Book cover

"What’s maths got to do with it? Delve into this curious cabinet to find out for yourself:

- How to slice through your fingers without cutting them off

- How to deduce without looking whether the rabbit under the hat is black or white

- Why the M25 is shorter clockwise than ant-clockwise and by how much

- Why minus times minus equals plus

- And how to extract that cherry from a cocktail glass (harder than you think!)

- Forget Sudoku. For keeping your brain limber nothing can compete with Professor Stewart’s tasty assortment of numerical nibbles."
