A great way to have fun and build brain power, Brain Teasers offers a variety of games to delight and challenge even the most advanced puzzler. Welcome to Brain Teasers. You’ll be trying to solve a sequence of puzzles for which you will be scored. The resulting total will determine how big your brain is, and how well you use it. The puzzles will tend to get harder and harder as you progress further. Brain Teasers shows off some outrageously fun new mindbenders, like: Anasearches (a combination of an anagram, a crossword, and a word search), Numberlockers (think of a crossword puzzle with numbers instead of words), Alphabetics (a miniature crossword puzzle that uses each letter of the alphabet exactly once). And more! Perfect for anyone who sits down with the New York Times crossword puzzle every morning or works through Sudoku puzzles on the way home, this book is guaranteed to excite your mind and jump-start your brain.

"A wholly original approach to the big question of our times, this book educates, entertains, and also achieves the seemingly impossible feat of making you empathise with Theresa May. It reminded me of Yes Minister: it made me laugh, but then it made me think." - Tim Harford, author of The Undercover Economist and presenter of BBC Radio's More or Less. * * * You're the British Prime Minister and Brexit is under way. You have just two years to negotiate the unpicking of an alliance that's been built up over four decades. And that's not the only minefield you’re going to have to cross. Your cabinet is unruly, your party is splitting itself apart, and the country remains bitterly divided over the whole issue. Can you hang on and bring Britain safely into harbour? Forge new trade deals around the globe? Juggle popular support at home with the goodwill of your former EU allies? Stop the economy from spiralling down the plug hole? And all the while keeping an eye on those Parliamentary colleagues whose knives are ever-ready to plunge into your back? This is an interactive gamebook in which you call all the shots. What could possibly go wrong? * * * What publishers have to say about Can You Brexit? ... "A remarkable feat and a fresh, unique approach." "Brilliant." "Witty." "A terrific concept. "Genius... The Yes Minister comparison is spot-on." "The scathing satire of The Thick of It combined with the Machiavellian scheming of House of Cards ."
