Opis

For many years, scientists thought that the human brain simply decayed over time and its dying cells led to memory slips, fuzzy logic, negative thinking and even depression. Contradicting this belief, science writer Barbara Strauch explains how the middle-aged brain is more flexible and capable than previously thought.
