Brain Training: New Hope for Children with Delayed Development

Read a sample chapter

View the Table of Contents

Neuroscientists have learned more about how brains develop and repair themselves in the past ten years than they did in the previous ten thousand. This knowledge has revolutionized our ability to treat developmental disorders that were once believed to be irreversible.

This book walks the reader through how brains develop, the stages of language, play and social development, and why ear infections can lead to autistic behaviors, attention problems and cognitive delays.

Samurai Teacher: A Practical Guide to Brain Based Education

Read a sample chapter

View the Table of Contents

The ancient samurai warrior, Miyamoto Musashi, discovered something that neuroscientists would not discover for nearly 400 years: any average person can develop elite skills if they have the right teacher and practice long enough.

Beginning with clear explanations of how sensory experiences become information and skills, how critical concepts in math, reading, spelling and writing evolve, and how teachers can use basic principles of neuroscience to produce elite students, Samurai Teacher leads the reader step-by-step through the process of brain-based education.

Sensory Processing Disorders

Read a sample chapter

View the Table of Contents

Sensory processing refers to whether the brain undertands what the senses experience. Researchers have linked sensory processing problems to a variety of cognitive and developmental disorders including autism, dyslexia, certain psychological disorders, learning disabilities and attention deficit. This book explains how ear infections, disease, diet, allergies, injury and sensory experiences alter the development of visual, auditory and vestibular networks in the brain and how abnormal sensory experiences disrupt both cognitive devleopment, behavior and learning.
