Train Your Mind, Change Your Brain: How a New Science Reveals Our Extraordinary Potential to Transform Ourselves by Sharon Begley

3.0

This book wasn't exactly what I was expecting. I thought it would be sort of a how-to type book. It's more intense descriptions on brain development research. Until very recently it was believed that a person's brain was essentially formed in early childhood. New research shows that people can make changes in how their brains are wired throughout life. A lot of very interesting research, but it had a little more history of the field and relating the studies to Buddhism than I'm interested in.
