Customer Reviews

Lacking in depth, subjective and unscientific2
Review based on the Sunday Telegraph freebie. Very odd read, peppered with subjective opinions, cliches, dumbed-down self-tests, a random chapter about the psychology of serial killers, and an interesting conclusion that stress leads to sex in the office. Some useful nuggets of information, but lacking in depth and generally a very bizarre read.

An interesting and challenging read3
The only reason this doesn't get 4 stars is that I found a few inaccuracies in the logic problems. No matter, it's worth the effort to solve them, and see if you can spot the mistakes. It's a good workout, full of stimulating ideas. I think the other reviewer was mistaken: the chapter "final thoughts" is NOT about serial killers, unless I missed another one!

Brilliant Book5
This books stimulates the mind. It didnt take me long to read as I found it so interesting. There are a few mistakes in the answers at the back at the book. However, this should not deter the readers from doing the exercises. Very well written and thoroughly enjoyable.
