The Art of Wisdom speaks volumes as the acquisition of wisdom is surely an art. It's brilliant, I think!

How would you rate YOURSELF on the wisdom scale? Would you give yourself a thumbs up or a thumbs down? Or would you prefer to rate yourself on the star system; from one to 5 stars? Let us know what you think by leaving a comment on this blog post.
Riddles, paradoxes, and puzzles have been confusing and delighting people for millennia. Zeno of Elea wondered how a hare could ever catch a tortoise in a race: every time the hare catches up, the tortoise has moved very slightly ahead. Schrödinger had his cat, Bertrand his box, and Russell his paradoxes.
These time-honored mind benders have tantalized and mesmerized us for years. Now, in one book, Jeremy Stangroom presents the classics in this field: the Monty Hall Problem; the Liar's Paradox; the Hangman's Paradox; and, of course, Einstein's Riddle. Stylishly designed and lucidly written, this book is a classic of its genre. It's perfect for beginning logicians - Einstein devised the titular riddle when he was a child - and advanced thinkers the world around.
By turns infuriating, fascinating, and gloriously satisfying, these puzzles will keep you thinking and guessing from beginning to end. -- Einstein's Riddle: Riddles, Paradoxes, and Conundrums to Stretch Your Mind
