Mind Games: Over 150 Puzzles to Boost Your Memory and Train Your Brain (Alzheimer's Society) Paperback – 12 Oct. 2023

I got this for my mother inlaw as she has been diagnosed with alzheimer's. Although I my self haven't read it my mother inlaw is definitely finding it useful and interesting. Even better she forgets she's read it bless her and reads it again. Definitely lives up to its reviews

Very interesting book and challenging puzzles, but some assume specialist knowledge, ie one puzzle asks for terms relating to yoga and there are others, impossible to comment without revealing the answers.I also think the instructions for some puzzles leave a little to be desired with regard to simplicity. Surely the point of the book is to allow a wide section of society to work on improving and maintaining brain function, not only those of a more academic bent.

Some text is missing, some is in different sizes. Elsewhere it is faded and on other pages bold.The overall size of the text is small so it’s not easy reading and I have good eye sight!A shame as the story seems riveting… The reason for 2 stars.

A good variety of tests to keep the brain active. For me the only downside was the amount of printed information which I was unable to make use of due to poor eyesight.

Saw the book reviewed in the Telegraph last week and it caught my attention. There are practical tips on how to keep your grey matter active that I’ll be trying to incorporate in my day-to-day life. The puzzles look great and there are plenty of them to keep me busy. Very happy with my purchase.

Well presented. And stimulating. Amust for anyone wanting to keep their mind active. Definitely a pleasant challenge.

I totally agree with a previous reviewer. You need specialist knowledge for some of the activities and others are not explained very well. I bought this for myself and intended buying another for somebody else but after seeing it I'll not bother.

Good exercises for the brain!
