Islands by Louise B Young
Filled with specific advice and simple exercises, this groundbreaking guide from acclaimed neurologist Dr. Richard M. Restak draws on the latest scientific research to help maintain -- and increase -- brain power at any age. Contrary to common belief, the human brain does not necessarily deteriorate with age, but can work just as well, if not better than a young one. The key, says Dr. Restak, is keeping the brain active. His 30 practical suggestions offer a new and positive approach to mental fitness, by helping us to: -- Improve memory -- Reawaken intellectual curiosity -- Understand the role of genetics and diet in staying mentally fit -- Shatter the myths about Alzheimer's, strokes, insomnia, and depression -- Explore the pros and cons of various drug treatments -- Learn the ten secrets of successful aging -- Maintain a stimulating social network -- Expand the connections between neurons -- Keep the brain operating at peak levelLouise B. Young is the author of Earth's Aura, The Blue Planet, The Unifinished Universe, and Sowing the Wind, and is the editor of Exploring the Universe, The Mystery of Matter, and Evolution of Man.
