Drawing from a wide range of neuroscience research as well as related studies, Jensen reveals that the human brain is far more dynamic and malleable than we earlier believed. He offers us a powerful new understanding of how the brain can be enriched, across the board to maximize learning, memory, behavior and overall function. The bottom line is \u003ci\u003ewe have far more to do with how our children's brains turn out than we previously thought.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eEnriching the Brain\u003c\/i\u003e shows that lasting brain enrichment doesn't occur randomly through routine or ordinary learning. It requires a specific, and persistent experiences that amount to a formula for maximizing brain potential. Parents, teachers and policy-makers would do well to memorize this formula.
