Well, this is a catch-22 isn't it. If I denounce the book, then I am perhaps unfit material for these mental exercises. If I praise the book, then I am clearly the subject of questioning regarding my own relative lack of progress. In truth the book is full of decent puzzles and strategems to promote thinking. I doubt that any actual points accrue to one's IQ; but it couldn't hurt, right? Anyway it's fun to challenge oneself and to stretch the mental powers. (
