The new book by MD, psychiatrist and psychoanalyst Norman Doidge is a continuation of his bestseller Brain Plasticity. It is dedicated to one important discovery: the human brain has a unique ability to heal itself. There are many real stories and analysis, reflections and paradoxical conclusions. Most of the patients discussed in the book were given hopeless diagnoses by doctors. But Doidge talks about recovery from stroke and Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis and autism, attention deficit disorder and dyslexia. He describes natural ways to stimulate the brain using movement, light, sound, vibrations, which awaken the brain's own healing abilities, restoring coordination, speech, vision and other human functions important for life.
