Summary: This book doesn't deliver
Comment: This book is quite silly. The authors crack the book up enormously, and then fail to deliver. Particularly the chapter called Demystifying Math was a huge letdown. There are no general, structured ways to think presented that will enhance your problem-solving skills, just a few hardly interesting probabilities. It's kind of annoying given how the authors praise their own book all the time. For example, they talk about some brilliant people like John von Neumann, and go on to say "each of them knew how to think smart mathematically without having read this book. Just how this was possible we are not certain...". Alright, they are not dead serious, but it's annoying given how ridiculous the Math chapter in fact is. And the book is packed with "like a Mensan would", "Mensans love this", Mensans love that", "a real Mensan would" etc etc. I don't consider this book a total waste of money, because it doesn't cost much and there's the occasional interesting fact.
