The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain

Review:As a mental health professional I have always pushed exercise (when appropriate) and the author takes the establishment to task for their underutilization of this powerful tool.

Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World--and Why Things Are Better Than You Think

Review:The book left me encouraged about the progress outside the western world. I did not do well on the quiz. yet, I have seen the homeless in San Diego. Detroit slums are horrible.

It's full of the kind of info you find yourself finding opportunities to share with other people, unsolicited. Makes the scary world of child-rearing less scary by putting it into a framework that makes sense and can become second nature. I highly recommend this book to new parents and seasoned par...
