Summary of Lawrence C. Katz & Manning Rubin's Keep Your Brain Alive

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The aging brain is not a disease, and it does not have to go into a steep decline as we get older. In fact, new brain cells are generated in adults. The most common mental decline experienced by people is not due to the death of nerve cells, but rather the thinning out of the number and complexity of dendrites, which reduces the brain's ability to put new information into memory. #2 The brain exercise program called Neurobics aims to help you maintain a constant level of mental fitness as you age. It uses the five senses in novel ways to enhance the brain's natural drive to form associations between different types of information. #3 Neurobics is a synthesis of new information about the brain's organization, how it acquires and maintains memories, and how certain brain activities produce natural brain nutrients.
