Negative Positive
Title: Brain machanics!
Review: This is a wordy, diatribe on brain mechanics.The best that can be said is that Dr. Goldberg is considering establishing for profit cognitive enhancements centers along side retirement chains around the nation.In chapter 15, Goldberg gives ancedotes about the aging who benefit from attending his cognitive center. He does not describe the contents of the computer programs they use. (trade secrets?)This center offers, "personal cognitive fitness trainers and a broad, all inclusive cognitive cocktail." (whatever that may be?) All this and a 'bag of chips' are sure to be expensive.My pattern recognition system has seen this sleaz before. It used to show up on television in the wee hours of the morning. The 'informercial' has now hit the scientific community and book publishing.
Is the review positive or negative?
