good find: Unbroken

good find: The Brain Rules

We found this book about two weeks ago and it has been on my mind ever since. The brain is so powerful yet we can take it for granted. I want to discover the wonders and harness the gems. A great physio once told me "80% is attitude." Yes.we.can. It feels like part of the story behind the youtube "miracles" is fuelled by a positive attitude. There is a lot of negative hurled our way, in the medical world. Perhaps even despite good intentions. Obviously "hope" can only go so far but it is definitely part of the recipe.
