Brain Rules: 12 principles for Surviving and Thriving at Work, Home, and School (Revised Edition).
An updated and expanded edition of the international bestseller
Most of us have no idea what's really going on inside our heads. Yet, brain scientists have uncovered details every business leader, parent, and teacher should know—like the fact that physical activity boosts your brain power.
How do we learn? What exactly do sleep and stress do to our brains? Why is multi-tasking a myth? Why is it so easy to forget, and why is it so important to repeat new information? Is it true that men and women have different brains?
In Brain Rules: 12 principles for Surviving and Thriving at Work, Home, and School (Revised Edition), Dr. John Medina, a molecular biologist, shares his lifelong interest in how the brain sciences might influence the way we teach our children and the way we work.
In each chapter, he describes a brain rule—what scientists know for sure about how our brains work—and then offers transformative ideas for our daily lives.
