The Brain Health Book: Using the Power of Neuroscience to Improve Your Life

Praise for The Brain Health Book: Using the Power of Neuroscience to Improve Your Life

How does exercise potentially prevent Alzheimer's disease? What type of memory problems should concern us as we age? What memory strategies actually work? Dr. Randolph has created an accessible practical guide to improving brain health. Quizzes, case examples, myth-busting, and a user-friendly dive into relevant neuroscience make this an enjoyable, life-altering read.

This book provides everything you need to know about preserving cognitive capacity as you age. Dr. Randolph has reviewed massive amounts of relevant research, translated it into a language everyone can understand, and extracted the important take-aways that allow the reader to convert words into action. I found particularly helpful the last chapter that summarizes the science of habit formation. This book does not over-promise (a pet peeve of mine when I look at self-help books), but gives the reader a blueprint for how to go about making lifestyle changes that can have significant impact on brain health.

[A] great book for the layperson setting out to address brain issues...I would certainly endorse and recommend this book to all and sundry, of all ages, and to fledgling psychologists who need to motivate and inspire resolve to change in their clients to make a difference, early on in life, to their brain health.

Interested in maintaining brain health? Looking for ways to keep your memory strong? This book provides a summary of how the brain works and how brain functioning changes as we age. Dr. Randolph reviews the latest research on brain health in an easily understandable way and provides clear and practical strategies that anyone can, and should, use to keep their brain working at its best.

For far too long, our understanding of brain function has focused on pathology. In this timely contribution, Dr. Randolph opens new horizons for scientists, practitioners, and the public by reframing our existing knowledge about the mysteries of the brain by focusing on wellness. This new frontier of brain health is presented to us in an engaging and accessible manner. In this time of the pandemic, there is no better book to bring us a fresh perspective to our new and complicated world.
