Ratey provides insight   into the basic structure and chemistry of the brain, and demonstrates how its systems   shape our perceptions, emotions, and behavior. By giving us a greater understanding   of how the brain responds to the guidance of its user, he provides us with knowledge   that can enable us to improve our lives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In\u003ci\u003e A User’s Guide to the Brain\u003c\/i\u003e, Ratey clearly   and succinctly surveys what scientists now know about the brain and how we use it.   He looks at the brain as a malleable organ capable of improvement and change, like   any muscle, and examines the way specific motor functions might be applied to overcome   neural disorders ranging from everyday shyness to autism. Drawing on examples from   his practice and from everyday life, Ratey illustrates that the most important lesson   we can learn about our brains is how to use them to their maximum potential.","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43412605206783,"sku":"9780375701078","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780375701078_s600x595.jpg?v=1775598225","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780375701078","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
