Editorial Review:
A breakthrough guide to liberating the brain's untapped power to achieve remarkable success. What separates the super-successful from the legions struggling to earn that promotion, get ahead financially, forge fulfilling relationships, and realize their dreams? This revealing book provides the secret to achieving the astounding: maximizing the brain's total capacities. Most people, in fact, use a mere ten percent of their mental abilities. Jean Marie Stine, renowned for her nationwide seminars on "instant learning," draws on cutting-edge scientific research to present an unprecedented strategic program for liberating the vast untapped reservoir of brain power--and get it operating at its peak. Super Brain Power is based on a revolutionary new understanding of "intelligence." As researchers have found--and as Stine makes clear without complex, technical details or jargon--the brain actually contains six distinct forms of intelligence: Visual, Verbal, Logical, Creative, Physical, and Emotional.. Separate and independent, each intelligence has its own mechanisms for problem solving, learning, and remembering. This book provides a comprehensive, integrated system to unleash the brain's six secret intelligences--and keep them all working together. Through proven, simple-to-master exercises, readers will learn how to optimize their six innate intelligences to achieve every goal--financial, career, creative, social, athletic, and romantic. Backed by personal testimonials and telling anecdotes, these brain-friendly techniques promise amazing immediate benefits--from never forgetting an important detail to summoning creativity on demand. With Super Brain Power, the unthinkable becomes a reality.

Not a genius, am I  2005-01-28
The author of this book has rudimentary college math skills (Bonehead math) for in her chapter on Math Wizardry -- her mathematics was off by loon or 15 marks on pg 135. And her methodology for deciphering multiplication problems of 25 x 34 would be difficult for a loon when one thinks that recognizing groups as 34/4 (100/25) = 8R2 = 850. And then me thinketh how profound her lessons are for those who can't add or subtract in thine head...maybe its a lesson to be learned where teachers with calculators in elementary are as rudimentary as adults today. I've learned something from this book, I learned there are 6 ways to unlock your hidden mensa (espanol version)...
Nothing to see here!  2004-12-19
I ordered quite a few books about IQ, brain power, etc. over the last few years, and I really can't recommend this book to anyone.
Jean Marie Stine picks up some theory here and there, most probably taken from other self-help books (Anthony Robbins ahoy!) with "Science now says..." , "Scientists now know ..." added for effect.
And don't get me started on those exercises! Gah! Putting the word "Power" in front of all your techniques does NOT make them more appealing. She seriously just called all her techniques for "improving" your various IQ's "POWER-something". Power Talking, Power Reading, Power Listening, Power Imagining, Power Shaving, Power Taking A Crap in the Bathroom, Power Drinking, Power Eating (You get the message).
All these "Power"-things are simply techniques and exercises taken from other books and pasted into hers.
Does it work? I'll be honest: I don't know. I'm halfway through the book and don't plan on ever even trying out her 21-day plan (or whatever it is) to improve my IQ.
Do some maths, read some sophisticated literature - some classics and some scientific and more complex books, paint something, and your IQ will increase by itself. Don't waste your money on this book.
Still, I guess, if you want to have it, go on and buy it! I'm not stopping you, am I?
A Good Read!  2004-03-01
Most people use only 10% of the power of their brain. Your thinking ability resides in six kinds of intelligence: verbal, visual, logical, creative, physical and emotional. Each one has a different function but, even setting aside the promises of the breathless title and subtitle, this book offers growth in each area with a simple and healthy collection of mental exercises. Author Jean Marie Stine states that you can develop your full intellectual capabilities as well as tap into that unused 90%. And, you probably want to, given her observation that people with highly developed skills in these areas are more likely to succeed than people without them. Therefore, she recommends that you read, look attentively at the world, learn to think in an orderly manner, be aware of body language and use all your abilities. Every chapter contains an inspiring yarn or two, and some beneficial exercises. So, we suggest, you start reading and learn to think in a whole new way. Imagine what you could accomplish if you could harness 100% of your mental powers.
Pure drivel 2004-02-17
I bought this book new and I am going to throw it away because I would not even want to give it to anyone. I read it through and I can honestly say it has no redeeming value what-so-ever. It is all fluff and no real content. Don't waste your time or money reading this book. The author Ms. Jean Marie Stine should stick to reading books instead of writing them. This book is garbage.
