Train Your Brain Paperback – 20 August 2014

Wonderful exercises that really keep your brain at it. Well explained. I'm enjoying doing the exercises to tickle my brain and keep it healthy 🎶

I had good learning reading this book. I wished that the facts were more descriptive and included research on:- effect on brain of our heavily distracted lives these days where mobile phones reign our thoughts and give us an illusion of learning.- how does playing chess for very long duration effect our brain.- how does sex effect our brain.- what's actually happening in/to your brain when you are "in the zone" for hours.- Newton and many intellectuals are known (rumored) to have indulged in studies for 2 days straight. Can your brain help do that? What happens to brain during that in-zone period and what happens when you stop, say, after 2 days of continuously being in-zone?

Im going through this book. After reading more than half of the book , I thought to share it with you. I recommend this book to students, professional teachers and academician's. Author gives us deep insight into the functioning of the brain, what and how exactly does learning happens inside the brain were discussed in elite fashion. An overall outlook in to memorization techniques were also recommended. He also out busted many myths that were engulfed around learning patterns. Something scientific is always good to read and spread.

For me this is tge best book to know every about brain and its working and reaction during different conditions and instances. Only part that don't justify the book is it's title because it says train your brain but it is not about but more of about it's function and working of it. Yes it help to train your brain but in different manner it provides you the information of brain working and from using that information you can train your accordingly

Misleading title. Disappointed. No doubt the author has done a lot of research on brain but the book isn't only about ways of training the brain. It's about the parts of brain and it's reaction during different circumstances and a few basic tips on training. I expected more because of the title. Things I learnt from the book : Before you start studying, do a bit of simple mathematics and while studying, understand what you're studying, study over and over again. Also, reading aloud helps in activating the brain; thus helping in memorization. You can listen to plain music while you study. Rest of the book isn't that much helpful.

If you are seeking a book which enlists methods to augment your cognitive skills and increase your intelligence then this is NOT it.It just elaborates on various phenomena of the brain (which, if you are a student of science, must have already known) and certain results of experiments on the brain.There is very little to learn something new from this.

Its not a book about memory power improvement or speed reading. This is a book based on scientific experimentation and facts. The author is a neuro scientist. He put forward his findings that he has observed by practical brain tests like MRI . He analyse which part of brain is activated in humans under various circumstances. How the brain functions to our native language and what difference it makes while studying in a foreign language. One of his conclusion is " studying our native language will improve our mathematical, analytical and other abilities". Worth reading.

Excellent book.. It's book for all ages from 9 to 90... Worth a read.. The author explains a complex and a boring subject not dwelling too much in biology or anatomy of brain... Though the important points to extract from this petite book is very less, it will set a stage for further reading of u r interested to read more on the same topic...Kudos to the authorP.SNever knew it's a colored edition till I opened the package.. The book quality is also very good...thanks to the publishers

This is a good book and well within the ability of any adult with a basic educated. However, I find that I was unable to keep it going on a regular basis, so kept missing days...and maybe that is why I haven't been able to see any improvement in my performance over the last few months.Never the less, it is easy and enjoyable, I even got my husband and grown up son to have a go at doing the pretraining tests...and they were surprised at the outcome. It is a worth buying just to feel you are doing something to help that failing memory and lazy brain cells.

A very interesting book; starts out easy & slow but gets faster as you tryto beat your own recordI am enjoying it and find it very stimulatingCan be recommended for Young and old

Satisfactory,is as expected

excellent

I'm trying to beat my sixteen year old grandson with the word memory, so far he's winning. I'm pleased I bought it.
