Have you ever wondered how intelligence is truly formed or how it can be improved at any stage of life?
In Brain Plasticity, internationally respected author 𝐑𝐨𝐲 𝐉. 𝐀𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐧 draws on over 40 years of groundbreaking research to reveal a new understanding of how the brain and mind work together to create intelligence. Unlike traditional views that focus only on the brain, Andersen demonstrates how the mind actively shapes axons into neural networks, and how emotions and hormones accelerate or block the pathways that define learning and intelligence.
Written in clear, accessible language, this book makes complex neuroscience understandable for parents, teachers, students, and lifelong learners. It challenges outdated ideas about intelligence and shows practical ways to harness brain plasticity to improve learning, memory, and problem-solving.
