Synopsis:

For example:
• How your brain processes new information
• How it stores and retrieves data from memory
• How it solves problems, recognizes faces, and handles fear

Take your pick of the 76 fascinating, mind-opening Exercise Puzzlers.

Research has proven that engaging mind-exercises can change your brain’s structure to your advantage even if it has begun to slow down with age.

See how your temperament and skills rate in dozens of self-tests.

For example:
• Identifying the temperament type you were born with
• Rating your social intelligence
• Taking your personality inventory
• Gauging your level of self consciousness

Breakthrough after breakthrough in research is revolutionizing ideas about how the brain works.

Here is just a sampling of the 58 readable reports you can put to good use right away:
• Ways to learn faster and trick your brain into storing information permanently
• How women’s and men’s brains process information differently
• How to take advantage of brief “windows of opportunity” to teach infants skills before they lose the ability to learn easily
• How to change your mood without drugs or therapy
• How you can raise or lower your body’s level of hormones that nurture or destroy brain cells
