Intelligence Quiz

Download

The famous scientist, Albert Einstein, was reported to have created a puzzle involving 5 houses in different colours, occupied by five different nationalities, drinking different beverages, keeping different pets and smoking different brands of tobacco.

 It took me half an hour to solve the puzzle. I found it fascinating. I searched the bookstores for a book containing many puzzles of the same type. There was none.

 I finally decided to publish a book containing many puzzles, with different degrees of difficulty. The book of puzzles will be available in the bookstores in February. Retail price: $7.90.

 When I introduced the puzzle to children and adults, they were fascinated with it.  Parents will find the puzzles to be excellent for training their children on logical thinking.

In the next few pages, you will find sample of the puzzles in my book. The quizzes are identified according to the following levels of difficulty:

Easy (4 houses, 9 clues)
Moderate (5 houses, 15 clues)
Difficult (6 houses, 20 clues)

The answers are shown in the last page. You can learn the technique to solve the quiz in my book. It is also available here: http://www.tankinlian.com/quiz/index.html

If you wish to order 5 copies of more of the book at a special price of $5 per book, you can send your order to kinlian@gmail.com. Postage is free for delivery within Singapore. Payment will be by credit card or PayPal.

I am able to print a customised version of the puzzles for corporations wishing to provide this book of puzzles to their clients. It can feature the products of the corporation.
