Brain Wave by Poul Anderson is $2 at
Amazon,
B&N and
Kobo US.
This is an Open Road book, so it's not uncommon for it to be on sale. But I read the book years back and really enjoyed it. A neat and different sci-fi book.
Quote:
“A panoramic story of what happens to a world gone super intelligent” (Astounding Science Fiction).
With “wonderfully logical detail . . . exciting storytelling and moving characterization” (Anthony Boucher), science fiction master Poul Anderson explores what happens when the next stage of evolution is thrust upon humanity and animals. As Earth passes out of a magnetic field that has suppressed intelligence for eons, the mental capacity for all mammals increases exponentially, radically changing the structures of society.
