From Tuesday, when I took ten bags of books to the used bookstore and returned with one.

When I was a kid, I was addicted to a particular type of logic puzzle, the sort where they give you a list of people and a list of characteristics and a set of clues, and you figure out which person has which characteristic. I love those things, and I haven't seen one since I took the GRE.

The problem is, I don't know what they're called. The ones I was given as a child were called Mind Benders, but a quick Google proves that "mind bender" is used as a generic term for puzzle, like "brain teaser."

So, my question is: does anyone know what this particular type of puzzle is properly called? And does anyone know a good source for them?
