An astonishing new science called neuroplasticity is overthrowing the centuries-old notion that the human brain is immutable. Psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, Norman Doidge, M.D., traveled the country to meet both the brilliant scientists championing neuroplasticity and the people whose lives they’ve transformed - people whose mental limitations or brain damage were seen as unalterable. We see a woman born with half a brain that rewired itself to work as a whole, blind people who learn to see, learning disorders cured, IQs raised, aging brains rejuvenated, stroke patients learning to speak, children with cerebral palsy learning to move with more grace, depression and anxiety disorders successfully treated, and lifelong character traits changed. Using these marvelous stories to probe mysteries of the body, emotion, love, sex, culture, and education, Dr. Doidge has written an immensely moving, inspiring book that will permanently alter the way we look at our brains, human nature, and human potential.
激动人心之作,虽然有全方位强调“大脑可塑性”之嫌。本书为“终身学习”理念提供了技术支撑:只有不断全身心投入学习新的东西,才会促使大脑神经元生长,而非随年龄退化。use it or lose it。 沉浸学习新事物,任何年龄段都能见证大脑可塑性带来的改变——这意味着所有的心智...
评分这是近年来,让我受益很深的一本书。 书中探索了大脑方面的很多研究事例,让我们一窥脑海里的究竟。 归根到底是这些发现让我们明白了大脑的可塑性是非常强的。人在任何年龄段都可以从事一些活动来开发大脑的能力,延缓衰老,提高生活质量。 同时在教育孩子方面,也可以基于...

评分神经可塑性的确是伟大的发现,但为此背书的作者,在选择论据时可能进行了有意识的筛选,可能有夸大的成分,甚至故意摒弃了关于实验的负面结论。有点忽悠 转一篇amazon的一星平均 Got excited at first chapter because I have serious balance issues. Spent 3 solid days on w...
评分看见amazon有些负面评论还有人攻击书在做广告,这个真的没有看出来,作者推荐的软件也不是作者自己用来盈利的,的确这个软件不是免费的,但是科研也要钱的,谁说科学家辛辛苦苦的研究出来有用的东西必须免费给全人类啊?没有incentive难倒要靠乌托邦式的自发自觉自愿做科研么...
对Doidge兴趣大涨~
评分一直很欣赏这样优秀的non-fiction类作品
评分是否只有统计才能说明问题呢?其实作者也明确的指出了很多地方没有证明causal relationship,反复强调了只是strong indication. It certainly opens up a lot of possibilities, “敢想”也算是“做到”的前提吧
评分一个见天亮读完,成功应付了考试,你就说专不专业吧。
评分重新翻看了amazon书评的1星评论,看上去这本书有点忽悠。
