Publisher Description:
Alice laughed. 'One can't believe impossible things.'

'I dare say you haven't had much practice, ' said the Queen... 'Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.'

Lewis Carroll, Alice Through the Looking-Glass

Could there be a knife that never dulls? A gun with no moving parts? A broken clock that tells time?

Here, Dr. Michael Laufer and John Nolan reply, "Of course " Through these conundrums, they show how to unleash the creative energies of the brain to solve even the knottiest enigmas. For instance, one could:

  • Reinterpret the problem.
  • Change the rules.
  • Change the solution.
Whether it's showering without water, driving a car without an engine, or using a computer without electricity, these are high-level challenges for breakout thinking. With this book, you'll stretch your minds and be primed to solve the next "impossible" problem before lunchtime.
