Most of us have no idea what’s really going on
inside our heads. Yet brain scientists have
uncovered details every business leader, parent,
and teacher should know–such as the brain’s
need for physical activity to work at its best.
How do we learn? What exactly do sleep and
stress do to our brains? Why is multi-tasking
a myth? Why is it so easy to forget–and so
important to repeat new knowledge? Is it true that
men and women have different brains?
In Brain Rules, molecular biologist Dr. John
Medina shares his lifelong interest in how the brain
sciences might influence the way we teach our
children and the way we work. In each chapter, he
describes a Brain Rule–what scientists know for
sure about how our brains work–and then offers
transformative ideas for our daily lives.
