- Forget the IQ tests and tweak those parts of intelligence that matter most to real world success. Sure, having a high IQ is great.

Beyond IQ is a new kind of braintraining guide, one packed with useful, engaging exercises scientifically shown to help you make the most of the brain you've got in the arena that matters most--life!"
