      图书描述

      This book is dedicated to the memory of my father, who must take

      much of the blame for my obsession with crossword puzzles. Chave

      Manley solved six puzzles a day (two each in the Daily Mail, the Daily

      Express and the Daily Telegraph) and one a week--usually on a Sunday

      afternoon--in the Radio Times. Until, that is, his son (with elder sister

      Jean's help) began filling the odd word in the 'small puzzle' of the

      Express and the 'quick crossword' of the Telegraph. By my teens I was

      hooked and was pestering my father to explain how the cryptic

      puzzles worked. Soon the back page of the school common-room

      Times was being inked in, and not long after I left school I made my

      crossword setting debut with the London Evening News, followed within

      18 months by Radio Times. Then a few years later a whole new world

      opened up with the discovery of the Observer's Ximenes and The

      Listener.

      Not everyone has a father--or even a close friend--to explain the

      mysteries of the cryptic crossword, but I know that there are many in

      the ranks of the would-be solvers. 'You need a twisted mind for

      crosswords,' they say wryly--or else they denounce crosswords as a

      'waste of time' without sounding convincing about it. The fact is that

      you do need to twist your mind to solve any problem, but why not?

      'Problem-solving' is very much the fashion at the moment in the

      school curriculum. And there are, I believe, some real benefits in

      struggling with a good crossword: mental discipline and an increased

      vocabulary are two. But the benefits must not be overstated.

      Crosswords are primarily for fun, but isn't the swimming pool more

      enjoyable once you can swim?

      Curiously, there have been very few books actually about

      crosswords; those that I know of are listed in the bibliography at the

      back. There is of course an insatiable demand for actual puzzles, and

      those who want a good selection should not be disappointed by the

      offerings in this book. My priority, though, has been to tutor the

      reader in the basic essentials and the essentials at the more advanced

      level. Chambers 20th Century Dictionary has long been the basic 'word

      bible' for the advanced crossword solver, but there has been little
