By: Ross Alloway, Tracy Alloway

Narrated by: Paul Mantell

A bigger asset than IQ!

Working memory - your ability to work with information - influences nearly everything you do. What if you could find a way to better handle a crazy schedule or expertly manage risks? What if you could gain an advantage in climbing the career ladder or in sports? What if there were a way to improve your outlook on life, to face each day with more optimism and confidence?

Tracy and Ross Alloway, leading experts, show how working memory is the key to all that and more. They present important recent breakthroughs in this field, including research on how Facebook can help with working memory, how working memory can improve your kids’ grades, how it changes as you age, and how working memory is linked with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and Alzheimer’s.

But here’s the best news: You can improve your working memory! This book will give you three tests to find out how good your working memory is - and more than 50 targeted exercises so you can sharpen it.

The Working Memory Advantage offers unprecedented insight into one of the most important cognitive breakthroughs in recent years - a vital new approach to making your brain stronger, smarter, and faster.

great easy to understand work on working memory

I picked up this book trying to get a feel for working memory and it was well done here. I especially like the recommendations that were practical and easy to follow such as peppermint and rosemary oils as well as memorization techniques and dietary guidelines
