The Mature Mind by Gene Cohen
The Mature Mind delivers good news for those in the second half of life, with an extraordinary account of cutting-edge neuroscience, ground-breaking psychology, fascinating vignettes from history and case studies, and practical advice for personal growth strategies. Gene Cohen, a renowned psychiatrist and gerontologist, draws from more than thirty years of research to show that surprising positive changes in our brains have the powerful potential to enhance, not diminish, our lives after fifty.
"Old dogs can learn new tricks.. Drawing on the results of two groundbreaking studies, Cohen illustrates that the years after age 65 are anything but 'retiring', and that creativity, intellectual growth and more satisfying relationships can blossom at any age." Publishers Weekly"
