The author provides information about the way humans learn. For example scents can enhance recall of information up to 30 percent depending on the type of information stored. People learn better when they are happy and playing rather than stressed. Spaced repetition is the key to improved recall of information. The author also describes individuals with brain damage and the insights note from these cases. The book is very readable and covers topics such as differences in male and female brains. It is a good book for educators to read.
