The Brain That Changes Itself (book)

"The Brain That Changes Itself," by Norman Doidge, explores neuroplasticity—the brain's remarkable ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections. Through compelling stories and scientific insights, the book shows how the brain can recover from injury, adapt to new challenges, and improve its function at any age. It highlights methods like therapy and mental exercises that leverage this flexibility, challenging the old belief that the brain's structure is fixed after childhood. Overall, it reveals the brain's incredible capacity for growth and change throughout life.
