The Focus of BetterBrainBetterLife:
Not everyone’s a brain surgeon, rocket scientist or Ph.D, but everyone can read Tips and Tales from the Tantalizing World of Brain Science. Brain science is fascinating and much of it is useful. That’s where the focus on this book lies.
Here are just a few of the Tips revealed in the book:
Why you should sleep in a hammock; the ultimate iPhone app for improved cognitive performance; the best exercise to keep seniors cognitively young; a simple way to grow grey matter in your brain; three ways for students to excel, and a workout that improves memory.
The Tales include:
Who is the ‘Sherlock Holmes’ of brain plasticity? How did magic tricks help a man nearly destroyed by drug addiction and brain injury? And what actually helped the molecular biologist who couldn’t figure out whether it was more important to pay her bills or do her nails!

”This book represents a significantly happy moment for me as I fulfill my desire to share my research with other non-scientists, and I hope it will open new vistas of interest and perhaps even personal change for you. One thing is certain: we don’t need to be rocket scientists or brain surgeons to understand most of what science is revealing about our amazing brains and our incredible capacity for learning and growth. I’m applying much of what I have learned about the brain in my own life and it has made a tremendous difference, including helping me to break through those old fears and manifest my dreams.It is an exciting time to be alive. There are many pioneers in brain research around the world who are discovering new ways for us to embrace the potential inherent in being alive. Some of them are covered in this book. I celebrate their work, for they are true heroes, venturing into the unknown to bring back precious knowledge that leads us toward a new understanding of what it means to be human.”
