Wonderful... an excellent resource and activity guide for children ages one through twelve. -Rebecca Shore, Baby Teacher: Nurturing Neural Networks from Birth to Age Five More than 35 years ago, Marian Diamond, a distinguished neuroanatomist in Berkeley, was part of a University of California research team whose imaginative experiments yielded a wealth of insights into rat behavior-and later into the plasticity of the growing human brain. A consequence of that groundbreaking research, and much that followed, is this remarkable book-both a guide for perplexed parents and an absorbing tale of scientific discovery. Its provocative subtitle offers a promise that the authors fulfill abundantly. -David Perlman, San Francisco Chronicle Diamond and Hopson bring hard science up to the standards of common sense... Diamond, a researcher at UC-Berkeley, and science journalist Hopson bring a clear and steady gaze to material that could have overwhelmed less able writers. The valuable nearly 100-page resource guide includes extensive lists of recommended books and toys for children grouped by age level and by gender. -Publishers Weekly
