A new, exciting scientific method known as "neuroplasticity" overturns the long-held belief that the human brain remains unchanged. With this revolutionary view of brain function, renowned doctor Norman Doidge, MD, introduces us to the brilliant scientists who are pioneering the study of neuroplasticity as well as the individuals whose lives have been transformed through it.

The book is filled with true stories of patients who experienced strokes and had to relearn how to speak, up to the incredible story of a woman who was born with half a brain, meaning only her right hemisphere, which had to adapt to function for both, providing us with a deeper understanding of our most precious organ.

Through captivating examples, this work will radically change the way we perceive the human brain, human nature, and our limitless potential.
