This collection of over 50 puzzles and logical problems includes some classic and some new problems. There are short puzzles that require no

mathematical knowledge and some that require rigour and mathematical logic. Great fun, yet challenging.

A Hen and a Half is also unique in offering different levels of answer and explanation in the book, and a extra level in the ebook that is FREE with

this book. It thus caters for those:

-who want the answer and explanation for the given problem, AND those

-who want that explanation in depth and for the type of problem.

So there's some serious mathematics there too, and techniques galore to solve problems in the future.

Accessible, well illustrated and in colour, the book has a unique, friendly readable style. Any puzzle lover will enjoy it and be challenged.

The title comes from the author's simple challenge:

If a Hen and a half, lay an Egg and a half in a Day and a half, how many eggs would 3 hens lay in a week?
