Bill Lucas, a leading international expert on life-long learning, shows that while we have learned more about how the brain works in the last decade than we have everknown, only a fraction of this is grasped and applied by most people. PowerUp Your Mind applies this practical knowledge for the first time and shows you how to learn. Drawing on research from a wide variety of subject areas, from neuroscience to psychology, from motivation theory to accelerated learning, from memory to diet, this book shows how everyone has the capacity to succeed and how most people use only a very small portion of their talents. ‘At last – a powerful and practical new book for learners who want to become leaders’ — Mike Liebling, Director of Trainset and formerly of Saatchi & Saatchi ‘An excellent book about learning.
