Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - "A wonderfully helpful book . . . After reading it, you will understand what you must do for your brain, and why you must do it."Norman Doidge, M.D.,New York Timesbestselling author ofThe Brain That Changes ItselfDid you know that experts are often less mentally agile than jacks-of-all-trades That crossword puzzles and sudoku are of minimal help in building brainpower That multitasking poses unique dangers to the brain Cognitive psychologist Shlomo Breznitz knowsand what's more, he knows what to do about it.

And it helps you do it."Rita Carter, author of Mapping the Mind.…
