What readers say about ‘Brain Under Strain':

“Recommended if you want to know more about how your brain works, if you want to change its overstimulation or if you are stuck in this rapidly changing world. The author gives you the feeling that you are not alone and, in addition to facts and experiences, also provides tools.”

“This book describes interesting information in an easy way, which makes it clear to me as a 'layman' how the brain works and I finally understand why I have some complaints. It is sometimes a bit confrontational, but this book motivates me even more to get started with it.”
