The Brain that Changes Itself: Stories of Triumph from the Frontiers of Brain Science
by Norman Doidge, M.D.
This is the third book in the series about neuroplasticity. Each of the books presents a different point of view. This book centers more around the stories of people that transformed their lives as a result of the effects of neuroplasticity. It explores the new science of neuroplasticity through interviews with scientific researchers and patients who have benefited from neuro-rehabilitation.
Why bother to read it?
It is an inspiring, accessible book about the breakthroughs resulting from recognizing the possibilities of neuroplasticity. It is told from the point of view of the researchers and the people who have achieved seemingly miraculous success using the effects of neuroplasticity. It is a science book that is a page turner.
