Synopsis
Unlock the mind’s potential with a bold exploration of brain-building and psychurgy. This edition presents Professor Elmer Gates’s pioneering ideas on how deliberate mental training can reshape memory, temperament, and even the brain’s structure.
The book surveys practical experiments and proposed methods for expanding mental power. It argues that regular, directed use of senses, deliberate brain-building, and targeted memory work can foster greater mind access, healthier habits, and more balanced emotions. The author also describes a framework for studying the mind through multiple laboratories and new approaches to psychology, neuroscience, and education.
- How training senses and discriminating stimuli may strengthen the brain and improve learning.
- Methods for building and reshaping mental structures to curb bad habits and enhance willpower.
- The idea that mind science can interconnect psychology, physiology, and education into a broader theory of cognition.
- A discussion of the relationship between heredity, memory, and learned mental traits.
Ideal for readers curious about early mind-science experiments, the evolution of psychology, and unconventional approaches to education and self-improvement.
