About this listen

Enjoy figuring out creative solutions to real-world problems that have led to important inventions, discoveries, and innovations throughout history!

The problems in this audiobook are related to erudition in fundamental areas - nature, technology, business, science, how things work, or why things are made in a certain way. But, unlike in trivia or jeopardy, you most probably do not know the answer. Instead, logic, out-of-the-box thinking, or intuition leap should be added to your knowledge to puzzle out the correct solution.

Experience walking in the footsteps of discoverers, inventors, and innovators through taking on real-world problems that challenge you to tap into lateral thinking and creativity.

This audiobook contains:

  • Over 241 engaging problems across 12 fascinating topics: ingenious inventions, business innovations, nature and science, historical happenings, folk wisdom from different cultures around the world, and many more.
  • All problems have additional hints, which make it much easier to brainstorm.
  • Answers have explanations, going beyond fun facts, providing more insight and subject matter knowledge.
  • Chapters are arranged by difficulty and subject, so you have complete control over how you play.
  • An easy-to-navigate format, helping you keep the fun going and avoid accidentally stumbling upon answers.
  • All content is family-friendly and is ideal for adults and advanced teenagers.

Children are often very good at ideation (idea generation) and solving problems creatively. Most stumpers of this audiobook can be used as a mind game regardless of age, education, or background. Check inside for a free bonus!

Sharpen your logic, enhance your creativity, and develop your lateral thinking skills, all while having fun and learning more about the world around you.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I feel challenged in an excellent way!

I learned a lot from this audiobook. Everything was narrated so well; I was able to understand everything.

My abilities to think from many different perspectives have been sufficiently challenged.

Haha!

Over ten subjects are covered in this audiobook, so most people can find something they like.

Thanks to this audiobook, I've gotten better at solving problems.

That's what I'd like to think, at least.

There's nothing typical about this trivia in the audio. But, in fact, it is far from trivial.

It's not easy to answer these questions. It takes knowledge of a wide range of topics. So it's great that each trivia question has a story behind it and not just a Q & A book.

But that is the beauty of this audiobook; so many are nothing like this. So I was made up.

Plus, it was fun, and it needs to be to learn, right?

This audiobook is well organised; it is arranged by difficulty and covers many topics.

There are plenty of fascinating facts that can be learned about in a fun way by anyone looking to increase their general knowledge.

This is my new gift suggestion!

Entertaining, and challenging!

I really enjoyed this innovative audiobook. It has tons of "puzzles" and a fresh format for "games." I feel this audiobook is helping me to keep my mind sharp while having fun! Also, I appreciated that the challenges and content were clean, so everyone in the family could listen to it. This should cost more than they charge for it, it's really great! I can't wait for the second book to come out! It's an absolute gem. If you enjoy keeping your mind active and having fun, this is the best audiobook you can get!

A good blend of erudition and thinking!


What I like the most is that the problems are not just "you either know it or you do not", but you can think and try to puzzle it out. In many cases you get this "aha" moment; if it did not work - listening to the hint often helps (after the hint, most questions become very easy to solve). And then you still learn something interesting in the explanation. Highly recommended for adults and late teens. I like questions about inventions, business innovations, and how things work. The narrator's voice works well for this kind of book - serious but not boring.

Great for problem solving junkies

Training and thought processes, thinking outside the box, and understanding the how what where, and why of lateral thinking. Great for brain training and brain health. Interesting and thought-provoking for those who like to challenge themselves as many great thinkers do. Great for those budding entrepreneurs who like to push themselves further and harder.

A work for inquisitive people

A very comprehensive work with an extraordinarily large number of interesting tidbits of knowledge. The structure with the quiz question and the associated resolution is ditaktisch well chosen. The narration is also very positive and highly professional! However, sometimes I would have preferred to learn more about the individual topics. Also, the incessant jingle noise was quite annoying after a while. This could be made a little more varied. I have learned a lot and will certainly have to browse one or the other chapter again, because I have overheard a lot in the large amount of information.

Amazing book

This is the first audiobook I learned so much knowledge from. It was narrated smoothly, so it was very easy to digest the information. I felt that I have been challenged enough to start to think about things from as many different point of view as possible. The most impressive fact about this book that is covers 10+ topics, so most people can find at least a few topics they are interested in. It kept my brain engaged and enjoyed it so much. I am glad that I found this very well structured book, it sharpened my problem solving skills.
