The Brain's Way Of Healing by Norman Doidge

Remarkable Discoveries and Recoveries from the Frontiers of Neuroplasticity

A compelling exploration of neuroplasticity and how the brain can recover lost or impaired functions through noninvasive, experience-driven interventions. Through vivid clinical case studies — ranging from stroke, chronic pain and Parkinson’s to traumatic brain injury and sensory loss — it shows how therapies based on movement, focused attention, sensory stimulation, sound, light, neurofeedback and environmental enrichment can retrain and reorganize brain circuits. The central message is that by understanding and harnessing the brain's capacity to change, clinicians and patients can use gentle, often surprising methods to restore abilities once thought permanently lost.
