I have been mulling over whether to give this book a 4-star review, a 3-star, or a 5-star. Finally, I decided on a 4-star.

There is much useful material in the book, however, I think that it could have been condensed. The book has been divided into three sections, after the introduction. A review of how the brain processes information is in section 1. I think that, if the authors had accompanied this with diagrams, it would have helped.

However, they seem to have focussed on external distractions, not internal ones. A lot of this information could have been condensed.

The last section, which comprises the recommendations, again, could have been simplified. You can find this information in many places.

Still, they have combined three aspects: the brain, the 'psychological', and the 'recommendations' into one book
