HARD TO BREAK Why Our Brains Make Habits Stick

Listeners will have to slog through a lot of neuroscience before the author, a psychologist, begins to offer specific advice on how the esoteric research he cites can be used to develop or break habits. Narrator Tim Fannon brings it all down to earth with his highly accessible performance. His intelligent articulation and buoyant phrasing make this a friendly audiobook. Though some listeners will glaze over at the amount of scientific detail, their patience will be rewarded when they eventually hear the treasure trove of advice and strategies for managing a broad range of familiar behavioral challenges. From impulse control and addictions to the dynamics of performance, this is a graduate level course on how our brains work and a fantastic guide to behavior change.
