The Secret Life of the Brain - How Emotions Are Made
The Secret Life of the Brain - How Emotions Are Made

Review:Great book, although I found a rather major flaw in one of early chapters -- the Minangkabau is an Asian tribe, not an African one.
Referring to this snippet from the book:
'This alternative explanation is borne out by their later experiment with an African tribe, the Minangkabau of West Sumatra. These volunteers had less understanding of Western emotions and did not show the same physical changes as Western test subjects; they also reported feeling the expected emotion much less frequentl...

How to Unlock Your Self-Healing Mechanism - Hear Your Body Whisper
How to Unlock Your Self-Healing Mechanism - Hear Your Body Whisper

Review:I especially liked the chapter on "Farming your Body." I have always had digestive issues and understandably so, no doctor has ever told me to listen to my body. They have always told me to eat based off the food pyramid, which is not the most effective resort for someone like me. Not listening to my body is probably my biggest downfall. I don't trust the medical system in our country and I believe our doctors have failed us all, including my mother who died of cancer when I was 17. I trust book... Read more

Extraordinary Journeys into the Human Brain - Reaching Down the Rabbit Hole
Extraordinary Journeys into the Human Brain - Reaching Down the Rabbit Hole

Review:XXXXX

"The extraordinary way in which the disordered human brain spins its tale of woe reveals how the organ works, how it creates the primal human experience of illness.

Over the years I have been privileged to listen to countless such narratives, to translate them not just into syndromes [like multiple sclerosis] but into rarer categorizations of a patient's plight (confused mind, difficult family, impossible case, threatening crisis, irreconcilable opinion, slow death, tale of h...

And Other Stories from a Child Psychiatrist's Notebook--What Traumatized Children Can Teach Us About Loss

Review:My wonderful caring school principal recommended this book to the staff as we have a population that is rather heavily burdened with poverty and other stresses. The book details the lives of several children, their histories and what Dr. Perry did to treat each child. What is incredible is the effect of poverty, neglect and abuse on the brain development. You need to read this if you work with children or parent them.... Read more
