Sam Goldwyn is alleged to have said:”Don’t touch the atom bomb—it’s
dynamite!” You might feel the same about How Intelligent Are You? a book of
intelligence tests compiled by Victor Serebriakoff, honorary president of World
Mensa. There are sections on defining intelligence, and the merits and drawbacks
of such tests. You will have to be utterly confident of your relationship if,
after testing yourself, you decide to test a friend or a partner, as the book
suggests. Published by Robinson, £5.99, ISBN 1854872516.
