Reviews

[Kelly · Rating 3 out of 5]

Some of the chapters need to be updated to incorporate the new technologies we now have since the book was written. There are a lot of good ideas, but some might be easier to implement than others. Where you live and how much money you have might cause some problems with some of the brain exercises.
