Customer Rating:      Summary: don't read this if you are an older, single male ! ! Comment: Cozolino writes from perspective informed by exacting research--and an agenda!
Eventually you will see it is a moralistic -prescription- for growing older.
He'll tell you what all the neuroscientific facts are about aging,
and then he'll proceed to devastate any hopes you might have
for surviving the vicissitudes of older age.
Cozolino is surrounded by wives, and children, and grand children.
All well and good--but if you don't have that degree of accompaniment,
you are -out of luck-.
The wolves will come in and scarf up your body.
So much for us poor souls who live alone...
Edwin Holloway

Editorial Reviews:
|
A neuroscientifically based account of how our brains age and change over time.
Brain development has traditionally focused on early childhood. Recently we've learned that the brain continues to develop through adulthood. This book explains the social brain over time, emphasizing neural plasticity and growth, and offering readers skills and strategies for maintaining and enhancing a healthy brain throughout their lives.
