THE FUTURE OF THE MIND The Scientific Quest to Understand, Enhance, and Empower the Mind

The ins and outs of nanotechnology and the mind would be difficult to enliven as an audio title for any narrator, yet Feodor Chin manages to convey the author's boundless enthusiasm for these subjects. Chin tells the story of the popularization of brain science with an up-tempo, keeping the listener's interest in the dense material. He also varies the pitch in his delivery to emphasize particular points, distinguishing the important parts of complex sentences. This is an excellent attempt at bringing academic research to the layperson in the audio format. M.R. © AudioFile 2014, Portland, Maine [Published: FEBRUARY 2014]
