A balanced, scientific, and practical approach to monitoring and maintaining your brain's agility and mental health

How do you keep your brain working at its best as it ages?

The Brain Fitness Book looks at the well-established science, and recent scientific revelations, and offers a well-balanced, clear, and colourful practical guide to keeping your brain fit.

First, it shows you how your brain works - explaining how memories are stored and recalled, and how parts of your brain have different functions. It then gives you practical advice to keep the brain working to its maximum potential so that it is less prone to age-related decline and can conquer stress, anxiety, and the risk of depression. The book is packed with mental exercises and activities, featuring challenges from logic puzzles and visual reasoning to language learning and sensory exercises, stimulating as many parts of the brain as possible. As well as mental stimulation, the book highlights the role and importance of sleep, a healthy diet, and physical exercise.

Keep challenging your mind in new ways with The Brain Fitness Book and maintain your brain.
