About the Summary

In this summary of Brain Rules, molecular biologist John Medina shares his lifelong interest in how the brain sciences might influence the way we teach and the way we work. He introduces 12 Brain Rules which cover what scientists know for sure about how our brains work and also offers ideas for investigating how each rule might apply to our daily lives. This summary will show you how to better understand how your brain really works — and how to get the most out of it.

  • Why our brains need physical activity as much or more than our bodies.
  • How many seconds you have to grab someone’s attention and how many minutes you have to keep it.
  • The simple tip to make you more productive and mentally agile.
