Book Reviews of Of Course I'm for Monogamy: I'm Also for Everlasting Peace and an End to Taxes
Book Review: Interesting questions, intelligently answered.
Summary: 4 Stars
Overall, the book was excellent. Marilyn vos Savant answers various questions submitted by the public, and the book reprints articles from her column. I enjoyed the various chapters, which included categories of brain-teasers and mundane trivia. I was disappointed in her answer of why kamikaze pilots wore helmets--I expect that they wore it for similar reasons that they wore the rest of their uniform. :-) I'm still puzzling over why a 200 pound person couldn't juggle three one pound melons on a raft with a 202 pound capacity, given that juggling a single melon requires exertion of an extra pound of force--after all, when all melons are in the air, there is no force on the raft except the weight of the person, so as long as the melons remain aloft long enough for the raft to float back to equilibrium, I don't see why any number of melons couldn't be juggled. Ah well... it's good to have answers that keep me thinking. :-)
