Impossible Folding Puzzles and Other Mathematical Paradoxes is an excellent book of paper puzzles. This is the perfect boredom buster for summer. Also, this could be used in many class rooms around the globe. I remember many of these puzzles used when I was in school, and I loved it, and thought the world of my teacher who showed them to me. It takes time to understand the puzzles and how to cut them out, luckily, there is step by step instructions along with pictures for your viewing pleasure.

This isn't a booklet you read in one go. I noticed that I would start to get distracted after about two every time, so it took me some time to finish it. I thought there were some interesting puzzles in it, some that you could use as a magic trick on a Birthday party perhaps.

If you want to really do them well,

If you want to really do them well, you'll have to build the puzzles first, but that's something I don't have the patience for. It was a nice enough book, but not really something for me in the end.

This book was exactly what the title advertises it to be...a great collection of mathematical folding puzzles. As a middle school math teacher, I read this book with the intent of finding something that I could use to elevate student interest in mathematics, particularly geometry, and the content of this book is exactly what I was looking for. I do think that this book is one that is better purchased in print than eBook format.

Wow! Origami, geometry, math, and optical illusions...what's not to like (love)?

I was going to quickly browse through, but ended up reading the whole book. Now I can't wait for the weekend, or some other big chunk of time, so I can make a second pass and actually DO these puzzles. Hours and hours of entertainment for adults and kids.
