I liked Katz's book. A simple explanation of concepts and suggestions about how to stretch your brain and keep it healthy. A good start to understanding the field of neurobics .
Rating: - It's all good
"Keep Your Brain Alive" is pretty much what I expected. Explains(simple/effective)ways of creating new neural pathways performing routine(mundane) activities.

Rating: - This is your brain on stupid pills...?
Might well be a recipe for ulcers , heart attacks and strokes:
reminds me of the latest fad diet.The Complete Scarsdale Medical Diet: Plus Dr. Tarnower's Lifetime Keep-Slim Program
Taking advantage of an aging generation of baby boomers who worry
about their future is somewhat reprehensible.
In my psychology class we had to study
a case history of monkey's that psychologists gave ulcers by " shaking things up a bit".
Stone age hunter gathers mostly lived to a ripe old age of 25:
so emulating them is probably very bad advise.
Point by point the book's prescriptions can be one for an early death
for people who haven't already taken good care of themselves.
The most important thing in keeping your brain alive
is not believing you are too old to think.
Distrust doctors trying to get rich by publishing
a cheap popular book without much real substance that you can read in 10 minutes.
