CONTENTS
INTRODUCTION
Our brain is undoubtedly our greatest asset, yet for many of us it is the part of the body we tend to take most for granted. We might eat the right foods and take regular exercise to keep us in shape physically, but we do little to maintain or indeed improve our brainpower. Nows your chance to change this and develop a capacity for thinking that will greatly increase your ability to solve seemingly intractable problems.

Whether you are more creative than logical or vice versa, the enjoyable challenges presented in this superlative compendium will have you thinking outside the box. WHATS IN THIS BOOKLateral Thinking includes a mixture of three categories of puzzles and challenges, indicated by symbols. The puzzles enable various types of mental activity to be developed and in the process smooth out left- or right-sided brain bias. The three categories are: PUZZLES TO INCREASE LEFT-SIDE BRAIN FUNCTION Designed to develop our powers of concentration but requiring no specialized knowledge beyond the ability to think clearly and analytically as well as to test and strengthen, our numerical and/or arithmetic skills. PUZZLES TO INCREASE RIGHT-SIDE BRAIN FUNCTION Designed to develop our creative potential, these puzzles have the capacity to change our natural or traditional perceptions and help us to find solutions to unusual or especially challenging problems. PUZZLES TO INCREASE WHOLE-BRAIN FUNCTION Memory is an essential brain function, and one these puzzles are designed to strengthen.

Puzzles involving a high degree of tactical reasoning enhance whole-brain function, and so many of this type are included, too. TAKE YOUR TIME!

Alongside the puzzles and activities we have provided a timer to prompt you to keep track of how long it takes you to complete each task. Record your start and finish times on the clock faces. Once you understand the solving process you should notice that it takes you less time to complete a particular type of puzzle. SOLVING THE PUZZLES
Lateral Thinking Puzzles - image 4
Not all of the puzzles will be familiar to you, so on the following pages we have provided an explanation of what is required to complete each puzzle, together with an example of a solved puzzle, where appropriate. But dont worry if you come across puzzles you cant complete there is a Solutions section at the back of the book.

You can go directly to the solution of a puzzle by clicking on the puzzle title, and return to the puzzle by clicking on the solution number.

Example: Folding Cubes Being able to envisage how a flat shape might look when folded is another form of creative thinking right-brain exercise as it involves being able to visualise a three-dimensional shape, from an image that is present only in two-dimensional format.
