About this title

Synopsis

This selection of neurobic exercises aims to help everyone whose memory is slipping with a regimen of mental cross-training that can be done anywhere, by anyone at any time. The premise is: exercising the brain releases natural growth factors, which enhance the brain's level of fitness.

From the Back Cover

OVER 40? GETTING FORGETFUL? TROUBLE LEARNING NEW TRICKS?

Introducing Neurobics, a unique brain exercise program based on the latest neuroscience research. These deceptively simple exercises help stimulate the production of nutrients that grow brain cells to keep the brain younger and stronger. Neurobics uses the five senses in unexpected ways and shakes up everyday routines. The exercises are offbeat, fun, and can be done anywhere, anytime. The result: a mind fit to meet any challenge-whether it's remembering a name, mastering a new computer program, or staying creative in your work.

Lawrence C. Katz, Ph.D., is the James B. Duke Professor of Neurobiology at Duke University Medical Center. His research focuses on brain development.
