From AudioFile:
The latest scientific research on the brain offers surprising advice on proactive "brain-tuning." The acclaimed author of MOZART'S BRAIN, Restak is a clinical professor of neurology at George Washington University Medical Center. Restak outlines fascinating information culled from cutting-edge research, then offers advice on how anyone can achieve optimal brain function. New discoveries prove that certain exercises, the honing of sensory memory, sleep, even certain foods, can help the human brain operate more effectively. Arthur Morey crisply and clearly delivers Restak's accessible prose. Morey smoothly verbalizes complex medical terms while projecting an apparent fascination with the topic. He imparts the author's recommendations and practical knowledge for keeping the brain healthy with zeal. Your mind can't afford to miss this. A.W. © AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
