Tickle your mind with Conned Again, Watsoni, a book by physicist and sciencewriter Colin Bruce that combines riddles and mysteries. Other writers have explained the many logical pratfalls to which humans are prone--such as the gambler's fallacy, the prior investment fallacy and the tendency to take correlation as proof of causation--but Bruce is the first to do so using entertaining stories starring the famous detective, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes.
