High-Octane Brain

Category : Alzheimer's disease
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
From a board-certified neuropsychologist and a national leader in the field of brain health, a science-backed program to prevent Alzheimer's that offers five strategies to avert cognitive decline. American adults fear Alzheimer's more than any other disease (including cancer), and because many people do not realize there is no direct genetic cause for 95 percent of Alzheimer's cases, they do not take the necessary steps to change lifestyle factors shown to significantly protect against the disease. In her debut book, Harvard- and Yale-trained, board-certified neuropsychologist Dr. Michelle Braun inspires readers to make lasting improvements by understanding the truth about brain health. After dispelling the myths and misunderstandings, Braun offers proven strategies to implement the five features of the High-Octane Brain: improved nutrition, regular exercise, sufficient sleep, reduced stress, and increased engagement. Then readers can evaluate where they stand on the High-Octane Brain spectrum with a Memory and Brain Health Assessment quiz, and develop a personalized program for optimal brain health. Braun offers a tracking system to provide a visual depiction of your progress. Packed with valuable tips that you can implement immediately to minimize common "brain blips," memory exercises to grow neuronal connections, and personal accounts from Super Agers or High-Octane Brain role models, this groundbreaking book will finally put the future of your brain in your control.

The Dry Heart
Author: Natalia Ginzburg
Publisher: New Directions Publishing
ISBN: 0811228797
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 86
Book Description
Finally back in print, a frighteningly lucid feminist horror story about marriage The Dry Heart begins and ends with the matter-of-fact pronouncement: “I shot him between the eyes.” As the tale—a plunge into the chilly waters of loneliness, desperation, and bitterness—proceeds, the narrator's murder of her flighty husband takes on a certain logical inevitability. Stripped of any preciousness or sentimentality, Natalia Ginzburg's writing here is white-hot, tempered by rage. She transforms the unhappy tale of an ordinary dull marriage into a rich psychological thriller that seems to beg the question: why don't more wives kill their husbands?
