Unlock your brain's hidden power.Too often, we humans tend to assume that nature is fixed, immutable -- and this tendency is particularly strong when we think about matters of the mind and behaviour. People just can't change, we say, so they must somehow be prevented from becoming a burden on society or from hurting themselves and others. Neuroplasticity -- the virtually limitless capacity of the brain to remould itself -- turns these notions on their heads.Leading brain researcher Niels Birbaumer brings new hope to those suffering from depression, anxiety, ADHD, addiction, dementia, the effects of a stroke, or even the extremes of locked-in syndrome or psychopathy. Through actual cases from his research and practice, he shows how we can change through training alone, and without risky drugs, if we open our minds.
