Reviews

[William Schram]

Building Left-Brain Power is a book that contains puzzles purported to enhance cognitive function. While I read this book, I had an overwhelming sense of deja vu. As it turns out, I owned a copy of this in hardcover. The puzzles are good. They cover various fields, but once you read it and know the answers, it isn't novel anymore. The book contains enough puzzles to last a while, though.
