The Brain That Changes ItselfStories of
Personal Triumph from the Frontiers of Brain Science
An astonishing new science called neuroplasticity is overthrowing the
centuries old notion that the human brain is immutable.
In this revolutionary look at the brain, psychiatrist and
psychoanalyst Norman Doidge, M.D., provides an introduction to both the
brilliant scientists championing neuroplasticity and the people whose
lives they’ve transformed. From stroke patients learning to
speak again to the remarkable case of a woman born with half a brain
that rewired itself to work as a whole, The Brain That Changes Itself
will permanently alter the way we look at our brains, human nature, and
human potential.
