This edited collection contains a variety of articles connected to puzzles, magic, and/or mathematics, including the history behind given puzzles, solitaire puzzles, two-person games, and mathematically interesting objects.

Topics include tangrams, peg solitaire, sodoku, coin-weighing problems, anamorphoses, and more!
