Contrary to accepted belief, developing and enhancing cognitive ability can be achieved at any stage in life. Smarter Next Year presents the latest scientific information and best practices for increasing intelligence at any age, whether you're 5, 55, or 105. This self-help book provides the tools to take your mind into your own hands and stave off the effects of time.
For the past three years, retired dental surgeon Dr. David Bardsley has been a full-time professional speaker, helping individuals increase their cognitive ability and perform at their highest intellectual level. His primary audiences have been groups of CEOs who belong to several organizations including Vistage.
As with any good self-help book, Dr. Bardsley makes some significant claims. Unlike a majority of self-help books, Dr. Bardsley is merely applying accepted science rather than pushing an unproven philosophy. The "8 secrets" aren't secrets at all. They are peer-reviewed science understandings that have only recently been discovered. Dr. Bardsley also encourages readers who desire to see if the argued changes have an effect to measure their results with a freely available tool.
As a physicist, biology is always a little wanky to me. I was very encouraged by Dr. Bardsley's use of peer-reviewed science. I was also inspired by his desire for readers to take measurements. My only issue with Dr. Bardsley is that his doctorate is not in neurology or biology. He is a DDS. This is not hidden. He did the work necessary to receive his DDS, but his doctorate is not vital to this research.
