A Tangled Tale is a collection of 10 brief humorous stories by Lewis Carroll (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson) The stories, or Knots as Carroll calls them, present mathematical problems. In the December 1885 book preface Carroll writes: The writer's intention was to embody in each Knot (like medicine so dexterously, but ineffectually, concealed in the jam of our early childhood) one or more mathematical questions - in Arithmetic, Algebra, or Geometry, as the case might be - for the amusement, and possible edi cation, of the fair readers of that magazine. In 1888 Stuart Dodgson Collingwood wrote, With some people, this is the most popular of all his books; it is certainly the most successful attempt he ever made to combine mathematics and humour. They have more recently been described as having all the charm and wit of his better-known works.This classic title has been published by RADLEY BOOKS.
