Publisher's Summary

Now in its third edition, Stronger After Stroke gives the power of recovery to the listeners by providing simple-to-follow instructions for reaching the highest possible level of recovery. The audiobook's neuroplastic recovery model stresses repetition of task-specific practice, proper scheduling of practice, setting goals, and measuring progress to achieve optimal results. Researcher Peter G. Levine breaks down the science and gives survivors evidence-based tools to retrain the brain and take charge of recovery.  

Stronger After Stroke introduces listeners to leading-edge stroke recovery information while simplifying the process to attain specific benchmarks. Also included is a sample recovery schedule, a helpful glossary of frequently used stroke recovery terms, and a list of resources for listeners to research emerging stroke recovery options.

  • Complete update of all chapters to reflect new knowledge about maximizing recovery  
  • The latest research insights applied to individual recovery programs  
  • Steps to cope with challenges at each stage of recovery and achieve success  
  • Strategies to save time and money

Missing vital topics

Its a very good resource but misses some important aspects. No information specific to different types of strokes, especially not even a mention of TIA. Hardly any information or discussion about how to avoid a new stroke. This book is probably better as a reference book since there is a lot of information a survivor or relative would want to look up as needed.

I recommended this book

I’m in the medical field and my husband had a stroke. We both learned a lot. I agree with the machines and exercises he recommended. I believe it has helped my husband in his recovery. Thank you.

Great book. Awful voice.

I could not finish Levine's book because of the irritating performance of the reader. I downloaded digital copy to my kindle rather than listen for another minute.
