About book Memoirs Of An Addicted Brain: A Neuroscientist Examines His Former Life On Drugs (2011)

Well, I couldn't get through the book. I'm educated in neuroscience a bit, and everything he said in the book was familiar to me; however, it was mundane. Nothing exciting, although there were some funny parts, there was not enough to keep me interested. Nonetheless, the creative writing was not so creative. Look at it this way, if anyone does not realize that DRUGS are not good for your brain, then you must be brain dead to begin with. I give him credit for getting himself straight, enough to study neuroscience, but really? How many examples do we need to read about or learn about through media that drugs don't work. Anyhow, I was disappointed. Like I said, I didn't get through even half of it, but someone else may enjoy the reading.Just not for me. Very good combination of readable personal story and the newly proven science of the neurology involved in behaviours of this nature.Really appreciate the effort of an obviously very knowledgeable author bringing the subject into the realm of the layman. Thank you. And others around me have learnt from this book. In my dealings with all walks of life, I find myself quoting little bits of this publication.Sit there quietly at an N.A meeting after reading this and see for yourself.
