Book ‘How The Brain Works’

The book describes how the brain works in detail and thoroughly. What influences its activity? What factors negatively or positively affect mental activity and which neuromyths should be disregarded? While reading the book, I just wanted to keep reading, because the question was ringing in my mind, what‘s next, what else interesting will I learn? — Laura

Read the whole thing in one sitting! The book is well-structured and very easy to read. I try some things in practice as well. Thank you! — Rita

An amazing book that helps to understand at least a bit about how our brains work. Reading about dementia sent shivers down my spine, never thought what it meant to experience it. The writing style is interesting and compelling. — Mika

A very interesting textbook-type book. If you are interested in everything about the parts and functions of the brain - then you will love it. Informative and simply presented. — Orinta

A very good book. I didn't expect it would be so interesting and useful. — Agnė

I learnt about things I hadn't even thought about, so the book is informative. It is interesting to understand how the brain works, so it was definitely worth reading. — Živilė

The book touches more on the medical side. The last part is more about practical advice on improving mental activity. Loved the chapters on brain damage. — Andrius

Very interesting. I got to know how the brain works. It's really very interesting and, I'm sure, useful. — Asta

I have the paper version of this book. I also bought the audio. Really enjoyed it, informative and useful, an introduction for people interested in the brain. — Živilė

It was interesting and easy to read, and what impressed me the most was the criticality, the effort to encourage the reader to think critically, not to be guided by advertisements about possible aids for improving brain activity. After flipping through the book, I got the impression that reading it, let alone understanding it, would require a lot of effort. When I started reading, it turned out to be the exact opposite. The text is simple and understandable even to a non-specialist in this field. — Rūta

Great book! I read it easily a few years ago. I keep turning it over like a textbook. And now there is an audio version - just the perfect way to spend productive time (even on the way to work). Thanks to the author. — Daiva
