More than 70,000 copies have been sold in Russia. This book tells about a revolutionary discovery in the field of studying the human brain, proving its ability to self-change. It presents stories of scientists, doctors, and patients who have achieved amazing transformations. All of them managed to use the previously unknown ability of the brain to change without surgical intervention or medication. The discovery that the brain can change its own structure and functioning through thoughts and actions is the most important innovation in our understanding of the human brain since its anatomy and the functioning of its basic structural unit - the neuron - were first outlined. This is a revolution! And it will have fundamentally important consequences. This book was one of the first to introduce readers to the emerging possibilities of the brain. You will learn about: - examples of patients recovering from strokes, - a case of a woman born with half a brain that reprogrammed itself to perform the functions of the missing half, - stories of overcoming learning disabilities and emotional disorders, increasing intelligence levels, and rejuvenating an aging brain.
