Brain Rules: 12 Principles for Surviving and Thriving at Work, Home, and School

Molecular biologist John Medina sets out twelve principles drawn from brain research, covering exercise, sleep, stress, attention, memory, vision and the ways individual brains are wired differently. Each chapter explains the science behind one rule and suggests how it might apply at work, at home and in school. Among his points are that the brain cannot attend to two things at once, that repetition fixes memories, and that vision dominates the other senses.
