The Economist Quiz Book cover

Sixty addictive quizzes from the clever people at The Economist

Calling all problem-solvers drawn to the smart, quirky and counter-intuitive. Challenge yourself to join the dots, get your facts straight and sort the genuine from the fake in this puzzle book inspired by the sharpest brains at The Economist. Do stocks with catchy names outperform the market? Is Bohemian Rhapsody really longer than Hey Jude? And can geopolitics affect the popularity of dog breeds? Packed with hidden connections and mind-bending facts, The Economist Quiz Book is guaranteed to stretch your mind to its very limits.

I recommend The Economist Quiz Book for you this Christmas, because it is so hard to find out at the moment what is going on in the world and I think the Economist can be relied on to be reasonably accurate, which is about the best rating anyone in the media can get -- John Cleese
Praise for Tom Standage: 'Uncommonly brilliant * Daily Mail *
The Father Christmas of knowledge -- Giles Coren
Books like this make you wary of ever guessing the answer to anything * Daily Mail *
