Surprising Science Puzzles
Author: Erwin Brecher
A collection of puzzles drawn from unusual situations that occur in science and nature. How can a battleship float in a few hundred gallons of water? Why does a bird cage weigh the same whether the bird is flying or perching? These puzzles are an infuriating blend of the obvious and the elusive.
