Take the Mensa challenge! These extraordinarily entertaining puzzles can confound even those with high IQs-and that's what makes them such delightfully tricky fun. A few can be solved relatively quickly, but the hardest may seem nearly impossible to crack. Give your skills a real workout on numerical conundrums, word games, lateral thinking problems, and riddles. Brainteasers, arranged in order of difficulty, train the mind and provide a good time all at once. The most complex bafflers include chess, logic, and spatial puzzles. Here's a small sampler of what's inside! � A farmer has twenty sheep, ten pigs, and ten cows. If we call the pigs cows, how many cows will he have? � Which three boys' names are anagrams of one another? Answers: 1. Ten cows. We can call the pigs cows, but that doesn't make them cows. 2. Arnold, Roland, and Ronald.

Here are two gigantic new puzzle books of epic proportions from Mensa. There are more than 500 puzzles inside each volume, from cunning numerical conundrums and testing word games to logical teasers, enigmatic lateral thinking tests, and abstract visual problems. Because they don't follow any special pattern, puzzlers never know what fiendish challenge is lying in wait on the next page. They are collected into difficulty bands, from the refreshingly straightforward to the downright devilish. Readers will get some practice in puzzle thinking with the easy section, build mental muscles in the medium section, and gain a fighting chance for the really hard part. No special skills or abilities are needed, just a bit of common sense, some basic numeracy and literacy, the ability to think things through, and the stubborn willpower and determination not to be defeated by a mere puzzle.Mensa was formed in 1946 as an organization for people with a high IQ. The purposes of Mensa are to foster human intelligence, promote intellectual opportunities for its members, and to encourage research into intelligence.
