MUCH too long

This is what killed it for me, it goes into too much detail and length about each subject.

Unnecessary for the everyday reader.

This book could be half in length which would make it much more engaging.

Deep, Intense studies

This book is a must for everyone. I had, like many others, a crumby childhood, and now with a family of my own and slight feelings of hopelessness, I picked this up.
For those previous reviews not giving much credit, it's because they could not understand the information provided by daniel g. amen. the information he provides is very detailed and very informative. I've taken notes to help myself master the systems described & studied by the author. I am convinced that the author is not pro-medicine, but relies on it, for a series of time, as a last resort. He gives techniques, advice, pro's and con's to nutritional & herbal remedies. He desires to give all understanding of the human brain and the systems that effect our personality and behavior, and furthermore how we can control it, and how we can properly seek professional counseling, if needed.
Everyone needs to review this information to become aware of even the slightest issues that they have and then to be able to relate to family, friends, employee's, boss'... etc.
good luck & enjoy.

Eye opening.

There might be more then excuses to the lack of good social and personal behavior.
Good read.

So powerful!

This book is amazing. I was so encouraged by his work and insight into the brain. I recommend this book highly.

Amazing information

I recommend this book to anyone who has been questioning any behavior challenges of self or any family member. it can be answered you been waiting for.

You Must Read This Book

Books like this should be a mandatory curriculum in Jr High Schools. So many people living in LALA land.

absolutely great....a must read

I love it. I learned a lot and actually have the hard copy book as well because I suffer from multiple brain issues but I am functional with a successful career. This was very helpful for me and I actually listen to it over and over again because one of those brain issues is memory dysfunction in which I am unable to retain information. It was literally going in one ear and out the other as I was listening so I have to go back and repeat everything frequently however all in all it's great and it's highly recommended.

understanding symptoms better

I see myself and my loved ones in this book and it's so nice being able to understand the symptoms that they're displaying that it's not the person that's the problem thank you so much for this book

Great book for family's who have kids.

this book covers great topics that most families might face it. Excellent advise and exercises

I highly recommend

I find this book very informative. I have not finished it but what Im hearing about my brain is phenomenal. I just listened to the first 5 chapters in 6 hours.
