The Brain That Changes Itself
Here’s a tip—read Norman Doidge’s book “The Brain That Changes
Itself.” The author points out that an astonishing new science called
neuro-plasticity is overthrowing the centuries-old notion that the
human brain is immutable.
The book describes a case of a woman born with half-a-brain that
rewired itself to work as a whole. He goes further and discusses blind
people who learn to see, people with learning disorders cured, IQs
raised, aging brains rejuvenated, stroke patients learning to speak,
children with cerebral palsy learning to move with more grace,
depression and anxiety disorders successfully treated, and lifelong
character traits changed.
Using these marvelous stories to probe mysteries of the body,
emotion, love, sex, culture, and education, Dr. Doidge has written an
immensely moving, inspiring book that will permanently alter the way we
look at our brains, human nature, and human potential. What are the
implications for effective organizations? Read on and find out!
