Tanzi, one of the world's foremost experts on the causes of Alzheimer??s, have merged their wisdom and expertise for a bold new understanding of the ??three-pound universe? and its untapped potential.

In contrast to the ??baseline brain? that fulfills the tasks of everyday life, Chopra and Tanzi propose that, through a person??s increased self-awareness and conscious intention, the brain can be taught to reach far beyond its present limitations. ??We are living in a golden age for brain research, but is this a golden age for your brain?? they ask.

-Reduce the risks of aging
-Promote happiness and well-being through the mind-body connection
-Access the enlightened brain, the gateway to freedom and bliss

Your brain is capable of incredible healing and constant reshaping. Through a new relationship with your brain you can transform your life. In Super Brain, Chopra and Tanzi guide you on a fascinating journey that envisions a leap in human evolution. The brain is not just the greatest gift that Nature has given us. It??s the gateway to an unlimited future that you can begin to live today.

در توضیحات کتاب آورده شده بود که این کتاب با کمک "آخرین یافته های علم پزشکی و عصب شناسی" نوشته شده است. حال این که به جز فصول اول، می شه گفت صحبت های چوپرا اصولا در رابطه درمان های جایگزین هست. دریافت من از این کتاب این بود که نویسنده در تلاش برای توضیح و تشویق به درمان های جایگزین هست اما توضیحاتی علمی هم می ده که لزوما ارتباطی با حمایت از درمان های جایگزین نداره.

This book caught my attention because the title was catchy and I wanted to have a super brain or at least, a better brain.

But this book is not exactly a walkthrough or a guide book that I tot it was. instead, it talks a lot on the spiritual and medical side of the brain. I am neither a doctor or a spirit guru so I am not sure what to do about it. the whole content is hard to digest if you do not have a biology background. I struggle to read on even though I know this is a brilliant book.

The book is so full of knowledge and scientific facts and the author also combine them with spiritual wisdom. However, the book can be very boring with no jokes at all in 300 pages. Its like reading key extraxts of scientific journals on brains explained in slightly easier laymans terms. Pick this up only if you truly want to know more about your brain.

ps: There are also many other well known books which talk about the brain in detail. ( )

Some years back my son told me I needed a Nintendo DS and the Brain Age game because I 'was getting old and starting to forget things'. I wondered if this book would be more brain games and puzzles, and it did refer to those kinds of exercises but it also covered so much more. Instead of being just brain focused, it emphasized mindfulness and awareness and how they shape the brain, even evolving it to transform one's world and reality. In addition to general well-being, the book presented steps to attaining specific goals such as weight loss and self-healing, and avoiding harmful outcomes, such as memory loss and anxiety. I found it to be well organized and clearly written with goals expressed as a process of transformation instead of set destinations.

I received this book for free through Goodreads First Reads. ( )

After reading the two current reviews (one with one star, the other with five stars) I felt I needed to add a third review. With five stars. This is a very challenging book, and one that demands more from the reader than most books. I've gone through this book twice, and still do not fully understand or accept all, but I feel challenged to understand it's message. The combination of Deepak Chopra (well known to most readers) with Rudy Tanzi (a PhD neuroscientist at Harvard) is a rather surprising but extremely strong and productive partnership. If you are interested in the books premise, than I strongly urge you to spend the time to read (or listen to it) carefully. ( )
