Boost Brain Power with a Book this October

on Friday, November 29, 2013

Neuroscience Research Australia (NeuRA) is calling for book clubs across the country to read a book this October about brain health.

The ‘Books for Brains’ initiative aims to encourage book clubs to think about the importance of brain research and brain health and are encouraged to think about the importance of NeuRA’s latest discoveries and research.

Registrations can be made online and clubs that register will receive notes from NeuRA researchers on selected chapters from ‘The Brain that Changes Itself’ the best seller by Norman Doidge.  

“At this moment, while Australian neuroscience researchers are ‘punching well above their weight’ and making huge breakthroughs, so many Australians display an open-minded wonder about the brain. That’s why NeuRA’s initiative, Books for Brains, is such a wonderful idea” said Mr Doidge.

NeuRA have provided a list of recommended books which include fiction and non-fiction titles, although book clubs are free to choose any book that relates to the subject matter.
