Play supergames for the super-smart. These mind-blowing, brain-bending puzzles use a deviously tricky mix of geometry and combinatronics (the different ways objects can be arranged), and emphasize structure, pattern, and colour. Everything's visual and as enticing to the eye as to the wits. Try to solve the Impossible Domino Bridge Problem: at first glance, the top-heavy structure looks as if it would just tumble. But give it some thought and you'll realize that not only can it be built but that you can build it yourself. Take the Ingenious Tangram Challenge; put together a Stars Puzzle; and Draw, Halve, and Quarter all the rooms in a house into equal-size spaces. There's illuminating background information on the puzzles' origins, too.

It takes physical exercise to build the body—and it takes a workout to strengthen the brain, too. Ivan Moscovich is a masterful coach, and he’s created a selection of tricky conundrums to enhance every muscle of the mind. Because each puzzle must be completed in just one minute, there’s a little hourglass timer (built into the book’s front cover) that’s custom-made to run for 60 seconds. Set it, and start the “circuit training” with the creative thinking puzzles: These graded problems develop flexibility, lasting mental stamina, and all-around mental fitness. Plus, they refine solvers’ natural aptitude for the logic, number, visual reasoning, and word puzzles that follow. The culmination: a special Genius Gymnasium program that helps maintain the brain for years to come!
