On the inside front cover of book 'Riddles in Mathematics' is the following:

--

WHETHER YOU ARE a person who left mathematics behind a school; or someone who was left behind in school by mathematics; or a teacher in need of ideas to amuse your pupils; or a pupil in need of them to bemuse your teacher; or an up-and-coming young executive aspiring to impress your boss; or a boss requiring to suppress your up-and-coming young executives;

WHETHER YOU NEED a course in Pelmanism or simply some mental relaxation;

WHETHER YOU ACTUALLY READ the books you buy - or merely arrange them in your shelves in a way that makes your friends say 'Here is a person who is exciting to know!'

WHETHER OR NOT YOU AGREE (with Epimenides) that all statements made by Cretans are false

This book is for YOU
