Publisher Synopsis
An American Booksellers Association Indie Finance & Personal Investing bestseller (4/13/11) WomanAroundTown.com, 3/29/11 "The writers demonstrate how we can change our neurocircuitry to take charge of our fate." Spirituality & Practice "Some of the most fascinating and impressive material in this book comes in small pieces: material on mirror neurons and their role in empathy, the skills needed to perfect your reading of the body language of others, the importance of focus and the problem of distractions, the art of reframing a highly emotional event, tips in constructing a proactive brain, and making memories durable." Newsday, 4/26/11 "A sophisticated blend of cutting-edge scientific research (written for nonscientists) and doable tips." Midwest Book Review, May 2011 "A highly recommended read for anyone who wants to put positive thinking to good business." Hearpreneur.com, 6/14/11 "Interesting anecdotes and exercises...The writers are also able to explain the brain without using too many medical terms to scare away or bore the person who just wants to be successful."
