 Simply excellent and informative to the curious explorer! April 17, 2009

This book is simply a pleasure to read; it is an excellent source for curious minds seeking a better understanding of "brain science", and how we might use that information to improve upon certain aspects of life (e.g., work, relationships, education). Highly recommended as foundation material for people interested in the brain and/or exploring new ways to improve thinking and productivity.
Enlightening Study of Brain Function April 11, 2009

I'm about to read through this book for the second time and cannot stress enough how wonderful it is. The writing is concise yet highly informative and each "rule" is very well defined. I found the author's suggestions regarding optimal brain function at the end of chapters very helpful and am looking to apply them to my public speaking engagements.
If you're into the brain, this is well worth the read.
Best non-fiction April 10, 2009

This book is my new favorite non-fiction. It is fun and easy to read but don't let that fool you. The book is packed with information one can use for teaching, managing, parenting and/or self improvement. I'm ordering copies of it for my school and buying copies for my friends.
Excellent Introduction - Engaging & Informative March 28, 2009

This book is quite informative and written in an engaging style (using the very principles/rules he writes about). Check out the following links:

These links are quite helpful to get a good sense of what the book is about, though it might still be interesting to read the whole book for the interesting stories it covers.
Great Book March 25, 2009

Read it in three days. For what could be a dry subject this was very readable and easy to understand. Well delivered. Sleep, Stress and Gender chapters were my favorite. For the comments of no references, he mentions this at both the beginning and at the end of the book.
