MARCEL DANESI is a professor of linguistics anthropology and semiotics at the University of Toronto, and has composed puzzles for Reader's Digest as well as a blog for Psychology Today, discussing the significance of many types of puzzles. He abides by the principle that even though some puzzles may take more patience to solve, they all should be "do-able" and eventually lead to a grasp of the solution.
