At what point does our Stone Age brain become insufficient? Will we be able to train our brains effectively to increase brain capacity in order to stay in step with our inexorable lifestyles? Or will we be stricken with attention deficits because of brain overload? Torkel Klingberg is an international authority on cognitive training. In this book, he addresses these questions as he takes us through the limits and possibilities of the brain. What he suggests is this: if we find a balance between the demand of everyday activities and our limited Stone Age brain capacity, we can maximally develop our working memory - improving our brains and ourselves."--BOOK JACKET. 000438306 546__ $$aTranslated from the Swedish. 000438306 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000438306 650_0 $$aHuman information processing$$xPhysiological aspects. 000438306 650_0 $$aShort-term memory$$xPhysiological aspects. 000438306 650_0 $$aAttention$$xPhysiological aspects. 000438306 650_0 $$aCerebral cortex$$xGrowth. 000438306 650_0 $$aNeuroplasticity. 000438306 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000438306 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aKlingberg, Torkel, 1967-$$sÖversvämmade hjärnan.
