The Whole-Brain Child: 12 Revolutionary Strategies to Nurture Your Child's Developing MindThis is the heading<\/a><\/h3>

In this pioneering, practical book, Daniel J. Siegel, neuropsychiatrist and author of the bestselling Mindsight, and parenting expert Tina Payne Bryson offer a revolutionary approach to child rearing with twelve key strategies that foster healthy brain development, leading to calmer, happier children.


The authors explain\u2014and make accessible\u2014the new science of how a child\u2019s brain is wired and how it matures. The \u201cupstairs brain,\u201d which makes decisions and balances emotions, is under construction until the mid-twenties. And especially in young children, the right brain and its emotions tend to rule over the logic of the left brain. No wonder kids throw tantrums, fight, or sulk in silence.


By applying these discoveries to everyday parenting, you can turn any outburst, argument, or fear into a chance to integrate your child\u2019s brain and foster vital growth. \n\nComplete with age-appropriate strategies for dealing with day-to-day struggles and illustrations that will help you explain these concepts to your child, The Whole-Brain Child shows you how to cultivate healthy emotional and intellectual development so that your children can lead balanced, meaningful, and connected lives.

Brainstorm: The Power and Purpose of the Teenage Brain<\/a><\/h3>

Between the ages of twelve and twenty-four, the brain changes in important and, at times, challenging ways. In Brainstorm, Dr. Daniel Siegel busts a number of commonly held myths about adolescence\u2014for example, that it is merely a stage of \u201cimmaturity\u201d filled with often \u201ccrazy\u201d behavior. According to Siegel, during adolescence we learn vital skills, such as how to leave home and enter the larger world, connect deeply with others, and safely experiment and take risks.\n

\nDrawing on important new research in the field of interpersonal neurobiology, Siegel explores exciting ways in which understanding how the brain functions can improve the lives of adolescents, making their relationships more fulfilling and less lonely and distressing on both sides of the generational divide.
