My wife and I had a great deal of amusement testing ourselves, even though we were both born forty years after the book was first published! We have not yet tried it on our own children, although it would be interesting to see the results.
However, it must be mentioned that some of the questions could have been phrased slightly better; and, to add to the frustration, some questions ignored other correct answers except that which the author was expecting. Not to mention a few answers that were technically wrong or based on hearsay.
Overall a good brain teaser worth plucking off of the bookshelf once in a while just to keep yourself on your toes if you can still find a copy.
