wonderfulOctober 24, 2008 This book is so informative. It has given me empathy for people that otherwise I had disdain for. I've read it and reread it over and over. Thank God for people like Dr. Amen who wouldn't give up. I've shared this info with many others, and one retired school psychologist said, "I knew those kids were not bad kids, but I didn't know why."
A nice change of pace...October 21, 2008 I have read quite a few self help books in my day and someone told me that this might be an interesting one. It proved just that way. It really digs in to the meat of what is going on in your brain and explains things in a non "fluffy" way for once. It has so many case studies and stories about the content. I really enjoyed this book and felt it was well written.
Stimulating!October 18, 2008 I had seen a two hour program by the author of this book on our PBS channel and that is why I just HAD to get the book! Very interesting information, new to me.... I recommend this book highly!
chenistry and the brainOctober 14, 2008 Clearly writtern for people who are concerned about mental health issues for themselves or those they love. Case studies and photographic evidence helps to explain some pshychological problems without any stigma or weakness of character BS. I do wish that the book was less drug cure oriented. I guess excercise and diet can only do so much.
Wish I'd Known 30 years AgoOctober 13, 2008 I'd seen Dr.Amen's special on PBS after which I purchased this book. I've always known that there was something about my personality that was in a sense "broken" and that I had some sort of learning disability, although that tern hadn't even beened coined when I was a child. Dr. Amen has a great ability to put what is a complicated subject into very easily understood laymen's terms and the personal stories of his patents were eye opening. The story of Jamie on page 139 so closely parrelled my family life, that I felt he had written about me. I was able to understand for the first time why I grew up the way I did, why my mother was the way she was and why to this day, I continue to struggle with certain aspects of my personality. I only wish that I'd known this information 30 years ago. However, I'm hopeful that this book will be the catalyst that I need to change MY brain in order to change my life. Keep up the good work, Dr. Amen!
