We're all getting older every day, and scientific research has shown that starting in our 20s, some brain functions begin a linear decline. But is old age all doom and gloom? Not at all! While it's true that some functions in the aging brain decline, neuroscientists have discovered that many other brain functions remain stable - or even improve - as we age.

Well organized and presented. l thought it was interesting, informative, and potentially quite useful. Prof Polk is also always careful to cite his scientific sources.

Deborah Fallows has spent a lot of her life learning languages and traveling around the world. But nothing prepared her for the surprises of learning Mandarin - China's most common language - or the intensity of living in Shanghai and Beijing. Over time, she realized that her struggles and triumphs in studying learning the language of her adopted home provided small clues to deciphering behavior and habits of its people, and its culture's conundrums.

Great insights for Chinese learners and expats
Revisado: 12-27-16
As a native English speaker and long-time resident of Shanghai who has spent alot of time trying to get to a point of being able to carry on a simple conversation in Mandarin, this book really hit home, articulting many of my experiences and provided insights l had not encountered before. Only criticism is her Chinese pronunciation was not very accomplished; but then realized it was not the author`s voice.
