Intelligence Quotient, as a useful means of measuring brain capacity, has come more and more into the public eye in recent years.
This famous book (and its sequel Check Your Own I.Q.) enables the reader to estimate and confirm his own I.Q. rating. In the first part of it the well-known author of Sense and Nonsense in Psychology, and Uses and Abuses of Psychology describes clearly what an I.Q, is, how it can be applied, and what the shortcomings of this system of rating may be.
The second part of the book contains eight sets of forty I.Q. problems each, and these are graduated from 'quite easy' to 'very difficult'. There are tables for converting results into an LQ. rating, and also explanations of the problems, together with the right answers, at the end of the book.
Those wishing to test themselves seriously should not dip into the questions or answers.

Take a close look at the auction images for details of contents and condition. If you have any questions at all please send a message through eBay before bidding.
Some digital photos of wood engravings, halftones, or other very detailed black-and-white illustrations from books and magazines may appear in our listings to contain a hint of magenta or green. These are moiré patterns caused by digital photography of high-detail repeating patterns, and the colors are not present the original illustrations.
NOTE: There may be more images in this listing than eBay shows in the top "gallery". Be sure to scroll down to view the full set, if so.

I'll be happy to combine shipping charges for items that can be sent together, as long as they are paid for within a 4-day window. You can ask for a combined invoice if you leave the items in your eBay Cart and then request an updated invoice when you're done shopping.
When you pay for an item, we are obliged to ship it to you the next business day. If it has already been shipped, we obviously cannot combine it with subsequent purchases. If we can ship multiple items together that you have paid for separately, we will refund your overpayment.
We frequently stop and re-start fixed-price listings with changes in price. When doing so, we try to avoid stopping and editing the price of items on which we have sent offers, but occasionally this can happen due to automated scripts.
If you have bought something, but are waiting for a some other auction item to finish before paying, please send an explicit message to us to let us know.
