Dr Majid Fotuhi, PhD, world-renowned neurologist and adjunct professor at Johns Hopkins, is leading the charge in revolutionising how we understand human intelligence, brain health and age-related cognitive decline. In this pioneering book, he reveals the true wonder of how the brain works and its infinite potential for growth and change.
