Absolutely fascinating book May 4, 2009 Reg Nordman (Vancouver, BC Canada) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Absolutely fascinating book. Check him out [...] and [...]. He lists out 12 rules but there could be many more, and if you were like me you would want Medina to just keep going. If you have always wondered why we are the way we are- you will enjoy this book. If you are a parent , you must read this book. If you present information for learning of ny kind and you want to make a difference, you must read this book and put the principles into practise. I loved this book, I devoured it. This author knows how you think and has written a book that you can really learn from. Enough, go out and buy it!
Brain Rules review May 2, 2009 D. R. Kuipers 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
A good book highlighting and illustrating some of the most important aspects of learning combined with a DVD.
Well worth the read. April 29, 2009 C. Huff (Austin, TX) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I teach high school Biology. This book worked for me on two levels...sharpened my understanding of brain anatomy and physiology as well as provided insights into how the human brain learns. Easy to read and entertaining to boot.
Interesting. Rich in Material. Must Read April 27, 2009 Kartik Shah (St. Louis, MO) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The book present good information about how human brain works.
It is properly organized, gives good synopsis our understanding human brains. It also does nice jobs of helping layman understands nitty-gritty of human brains without using overly complex scientific terminology.
Last two chapters also bring unique insights. I really like them most.
Only negatives about the book, it that while it does good enough job of explaining how brain works, it leaves up to the reader how to make best use of the information provided. It does not give us clear action plan or take aways on how to get best of our brain.
