Filled with specific advice and simple exercises, this groundbreaking guide from acclaimed neurologist Dr. Richard M. Restak draws on the latest scientific research to help maintain -- and increase -- brain power at any age.

His 30 practical suggestions offer a new and positive approach to mental fitness, by helping us to: -- Improve memory -- Reawaken intellectual curiosity -- Understand the role of genetics and diet in staying mentally fit -- Shatter the myths about Alzheimer's, strokes, insomnia, and depression -- Explore the pros and cons of various drug treatments -- Learn the ten secrets of successful aging -- Maintain a stimulating social network -- Expand the connections between neurons -- Keep the brain operating at peak level
