Neurologists and psychologists have discovered the aging brain is much more elastic and supple than previously thought, and that happiness actually increases with age. While our short-term memory may not be what it was, dementia is not inevitable. Far from disintegrating, the elder brain can continue to develop and adapt in many ways and stay sharp as it ages. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eOffers new insights on how an aging brain can repair itself, and the five best strategies for keeping your brain healthy\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eShows how older brains can acquire new skills, perspective, and productivity\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDispels negative myths about aging\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExplores what to expect as our brains grow older \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eWith hope and truth, this book helps us preserve what we’ve got, minimize what we’ve lost, and optimize the vigor and health of our maturing brains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJUDITH HORSTMAN\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of\u003ci\u003e The\u003c\/i\u003e Scientific American \u003ci\u003eDay in the Life of Your Brain\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe\u003c\/i\u003e Scientific American \u003ci\u003eBrave New Brain\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe\u003c\/i\u003e Scientific American \u003ci\u003eBook of Love, Sex, and the Brain\u003c\/i\u003e.
