The Mature Mind: The Positive Power of the Aging Brain
I liked the premise of this book: that the mind can continue to grow and develop in later life. Working memory, and the ability to easily learn new things, does deteriorate some, but the mature mind is better able to make connections, combine social and emotional intelligence with intellect, and use both halves of the brain. In brief, the wisdom that is supposed to come with age is a real thing. I have found that to be true in my 60 years, so the message of this book was affirming and certainly encouraging. But I think I would have been happier to just read an article that summarized the ideas in the book. It was a little repetitive, and went into more scientific detail about the brain than I really cared about.
