“Surveys often indicate that adults fear one thing more than anything else: memory loss. This straightforward workbook is filled with exercises and activities designed to fire up the neuro-workings of the brain and mitigate factors that contribute to forgetfulness. Pages are filled with worksheets that encourage readers to conduct self-inventories, jot down their thoughts, respond to surveys, draw pictures, and analyze their memory-related concerns as they sharpen various brain-building skills.... Readers are also reminded that these exercises need to be repeated at regular intervals and that templates for all the worksheets are readily available for download (a feature that should extend the lives of library copies).... This practical self-help book offers encouragement, advice, and concrete steps that should reassure and empower concerned individuals.”
