    MUCH too long

    This is what killed it for me, it goes into too much detail and length about each subject.

    Unnecessary for the everyday reader.

    This book could be half in length which would make it much more engaging.

    Deep, Intense studies

    This book is a must for everyone. I had, like many others, a crumby childhood, and now with a family of my own and slight feelings of hopelessness, I picked this up.
    For those previous reviews not giving much credit, it's because they could not understand the information provided by daniel g. amen. the information he provides is very detailed and very informative. I've taken notes to help myself master the systems described & studied by the author. I am convinced that the author is not pro-medicine, but relies on it, for a series of time, as a last resort. He gives techniques, advice, pro's and con's to nutritional & herbal remedies. He desires to give all understanding of the human brain and the systems that effect our personality and behavior, and furthermore how we can control it, and how we can properly seek professional counseling, if needed.
    Everyone needs to review this information to become aware of even the slightest issues that they have and then to be able to relate to family, friends, employee's, boss'... etc.
    good luck & enjoy.

    How to stretch 2.5 hours of material to fit 11

    Skip past 1.5 hours its just brag about his former work, and yes it is really 1.5 hours of it before the book gets started, then listen closely, and just skip over the "look how great I did I saved yet another life parts"; or you might risk falling asleep or even go into a deep coma.

    There are a lot of interesting facts about the specific brain parts, the book covers mainly the behavior patterns concerning the deep limbic system, X lopus, some X gyros and chemical imbalances and that's very informative, also there are some nice self help talk. And if the book was only 2.5 hours long I would have been happy,

    Love it! Intriguing!

    The audio is primarily for a clinical training not for the average inquisitive person. Very technical.

    Would you consider the audio edition of Change Your Brain, Change Your Life to be better than the print version?

    This is a book that will teach you that you can't give up which means help is there you just need to find the right doctor with the know how!. With the information we learned here in this book we can now talk to our Doctor and help him help us. You will find this is a must have book that will have you going back in and listening to some sections again and again.

    Any additional comments?
