Norman Doidge

Aivot ovat neuroplastiset eli muovautuvat. Se tarkoittaa, että aivojen rakenne ja toiminnot muuttuvat, kun ne reagoivat toimintaan ja kokemuksiin. Aivot ja paranemisen ihme kertoo tästä ihmisaivojen ainutlaatuisesta ominaisuudesta, joka auttaa hoitamaan ja jopa parantamaan kokonaan monia peruuttamattomina pidettyjä aivojen toimintahäiriöitä. Psykiatri Norman Doidge kuvailee kirjassaan useita menetelmiä, joiden avulla keho ja aivot voivat muodostaa uusia hermostollisia yhteyksiä. Nämä valoa, ääntä, värähtelyä, sähköä ja liikettä hyödyntävät hoitomenetelmät herättävät aivojen omat parantavat kyvyt. Kirjassa paneudutaan yksityiskohtaisesti erilaisiin tapauskertomuksiin, joissa potilaiden oireet lieventyivät tai parantuivat esimerkiksi kroonisesta kivusta, aivoverenkiertohäiriöstä, aivovammasta tai aivovauriosta. Doidge esittelee myös mm. Parkinsonin tautiin, multippeliskleroosiin (MS-tauti), autismiin, tarkkaavuushäiriöön, oppimishäiriöön ja lukihäiriöön liittyviä kertomuksia. Norman Doidge (M. D.) on psykiatri, psykoanalyytikko ja New York Timesin bestseller-listalta tuttu menestyskirjailija, joka toimii tutkijana Columbian yliopistossa Yhdysvalloissa ja Toronton yliopistossa Kanadassa.

In his groundbreaking work The Brain That Changes Itself, Norman Doidge introduced readers to neuroplasticity--the brain's ability to change its own structure and function in response to activity and mental experience. Now his revolutionary new book shows how the amazing process of neuroplastic healing really works. The Brain's Way of Healing describes natural, noninvasive avenues into the brain provided by the energy around us--in light, sound, vibration, and movement--that can awaken the brain's own healing capacities without producing unpleasant side effects. Doidge explores cases where patients alleviated chronic pain; recovered from debilitating strokes, brain injuries, and learning disorders; overcame attention deficit and learning disorders; and found relief from symptoms of autism, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, and cerebral palsy. And we learn how to vastly reduce the risk of dementia, with simple approaches anyone can use. For centuries it was believed that the brain's complexity prevented recovery from damage or disease. The Brain's Way of Healing shows that this very sophistication is the source of a unique kind of healing. As he did so lucidly in The Brain That Changes Itself, Doidge uses stories to present cutting-edge science with practical real-world applications, and principles that everyone can apply to improve their brain's performance and health.

'This is a book of miracles. Fascinating... An absorbing compendium of unlikely recoveries from physical and mental ailments offers evidence that the brain can heal... brings Oliver Sacks to mind' Lisa Appignanesi, ObserverThe Brain's Way of Healing explores the astonishing advances in the discovery of neuroplasticity, showing that the brain has its own unique way of healing, only recently uncovered. Norman Doidge discusses a series of remarkable recoveries: patients told they would never improve have years of chronic pain alleviated or damage from debilitating strokes undone, and symptoms of multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, brain injury, autism or learning disorders are reversed. He also shows how the risk of dementia can be lowered by 60%. Using stories to present cutting-edge science, Doidge illustrates principles that everyone can apply to improve their brain's performance.

"Fascinating. Doidge's book is a remarkable and hopeful portrait of the endless adaptability of the human brain."--Oliver Sacks, MD, author of The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat What is neuroplasticity? Is it possible to change your brain? Norman Doidge's inspiring guide to the new brain science explains all of this and more An astonishing new science called neuroplasticity is overthrowing the centuries-old notion that the human brain is immutable, and proving that it is, in fact, possible to change your brain. Psychoanalyst, Norman Doidge, M. D., traveled the country to meet both the brilliant scientists championing neuroplasticity, its healing powers, and the people whose lives they've transformed--people whose mental limitations, brain damage or brain trauma were seen as unalterable. We see a woman born with half a brain that rewired itself to work as a whole, blind people who learn to see, learning disorders cured, IQs raised, aging brains rejuvenated, stroke patients learning to speak, children with cerebral palsy learning to move with more grace, depression and anxiety disorders successfully treated, and lifelong character traits changed. Using these marvelous stories to probe mysteries of the body, emotion, love, sex, culture, and education, Dr. Doidge has written an immensely moving, inspiring book that will permanently alter the way we look at our brains, human nature, and human potential.
