À propos de cet audio

 An astonishing new science called neuroplasticity is overthrowing the centuries-old notion that the human brain is immutable. Psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, Norman Doidge, M.D., traveled the country to meet both the brilliant scientists championing neuroplasticity and the people whose lives they’ve transformed—people whose mental limitations or brain damage were seen as unalterable. We see a woman born with half a brain that rewired itself to work as a whole, blind people who learn to see, learning disorders cured, IQs raised, aging brains rejuvenated, stroke patients learning to speak, children with cerebral palsy learning to move with more grace, depression and anxiety disorders successfully treated, and lifelong character traits changed. Using these marvelous stories to probe mysteries of the body, emotion, love, sex, culture, and education, Dr. Doidge has written an immensely moving, inspiring book that will permanently alter the way we look at our brains, human nature, and human potential.

This book answers so many questions about the why and how we use our brain for constructive and destructive activities. I propose without the knowledge of brain plasticity people sell themselves a bill of goods based on past experience. The exciting idea that you can alter your basic conception of experience is thrilling. We can put away the idea that no matter how hard I try I cannot change, yes you can just use your brain!

Fascinating and highly motivating in my opinion. The quest for learning and pushing our minds to think deeper can only benefit us and contribute to a fuller life. Excellent read.
