Product Description
Product Description
The human brain is quite remarkable. Its intricate workings have been subjected to intense study by some of the greatest intellects of our times and despite this, we still know relatively little about how it actually works. However, there is one fact on which all experts in the field are in agreement: the brain benefits from regular exercise in much the same way as muscles do. In fact, the brain not only benefits from this training - it thrives on it. What kind of exercise does the brain enjoy? Here the experts are again in agreement. Creative thinking, deductive reasoning and puzzle solving are all excellent areas for building up your mental muscle. The "Boost your Brainpower" series gives your brain the opportunity for serious regular exercise. Philip Carter and Ken Russell are UK Mensa Puzzle editors and are thus perfectly qualified to provide the equipment for a daily workout for your most important muscle. IQ puzzles are especially good training for the brain and are now increasingly being encountered in applications for employment in government, education, industry and commerce.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Not bad for 9.95$, 3 July 2005
By GermanLuftwaffe - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: 400 IQ Puzzles: Boost Your Brain Power (Paperback)
This 176 page IQ puzzle book is not bad at all.
Likes:
The book includes real IQ questions and puzzles which you might encounter on a IQ test.
The book has 400 puzzles & questions divided into 10 sections or 10 actual IQ Tests with 40 puzzles & questions on each Test.(40x10)= 400
You will get 1 point for every puzzle or question you get correct & your mental ability will get rated as Average, Good, Very Good, Excellent, & Exceptional: depending on the number of puzzles & questions you get correct on each test.
Dislikes:
Basically, the puzzles and questions all appear in black and white.
They lack color, mood and art which really sucks because I love puzzles filled with colorful designs and that makes the puzzles look more professional, exciting and most of all NOT boring.
When you search at the back of the book for the solutions the book will often only give you the answer but not the full explanation.
Sometimes you will encounter certain synonym and vocabulary questions and the book does not have the definition of each word, just the answer.
Overall, because this is my first IQ puzzle book I give it 4 stars. It's definitely not a bad purchase for 10 bucks.
