Synopsis:

An entertaining interactive program designed to increase the power of practical language, computational, and mental skills essential to professional and personal success. Includes reports of recent discoveries in the neurosciences with more than 100 tips to help improce performance in real-world problem-solving situations. 14 different formats of progressively more difficult mental-conditioning exercises activate positive-response brain circuits to build neuron-strength and improve mood. Just as physical exercises build muscle groups, they gradually develop skills used in executive, planning, vocabulary, computational calculations, and logical deduction. 5 self-scoring tests measure status. Developed by Games magazine's founder.
