Does Your Brain Need Beefing Up? The human brain is one of the most complex organisms known. When working at optimum levels, it can process loads of data as quickly as a computer. Although a computer’s hard drive can ultimately store much more data, our brains can store “data” in ways that a computer never could— instantly recalling how creme brulee smells, feels, and tastes when this dessert is mentioned. Unfortunately the brain doesn’t always remain working at optimum levels . . . unless you work on it!

Scientists all over the world agree that the evidence is now overwhelming: mentally stimulating lives beef up your brain power. Numerous landmark studies have found that engaging in mentally stimulating activities throughout our lives can help keep our minds sharp. Several of the studies cite participating in challenging, interactive games as one effective method to keep the brain challenged and agile, and several studies look specifically at targeted skills training. Beef Up Your Brain—every time you do some of the puzzles in this generously portioned book, it’s like taking your brain to the gym. So suit up, and let’s get started!
