NURTURING A HEALTHY MIND

Book ID/图书代码： 04410012B54288

English Summary/英文概要： The 90’s was declared the “Decade of the Brain” and a flurry of research on brain development soon followed. The result: two decades on we now know more about the brain than we did since the first recorded writings 6000 years ago.

Advances in technology and science have taught us a great deal and Nurturing a Healthy Mind supports the growing consensus that research on brain development is relevant to parenting. At the beginning of the twenty-first century, parents and teachers are seeing the benefits of this research, with child rearing and education being shaped by new understandings of the human brain.

It is becoming wider knowledge that the interactions between our genetic makeup, early experiences and environmental influences shape the architecture of the developing brain. And as such our understanding of the importance of the early years of life have, thankfully, received much greater attention and scrutiny. We are witnessing a tsunami of research, in conjunction with well-informed individuals, looking to ensure that all children receive the attention they need in their earliest days of life.

Nurturing a Healthy Mind, with its easy-to-understand format, gives parents and early caregivers a great opportunity to tap into this research and provide the best environment possible for healthy child development.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 20世纪90年代被称为“脑力年代”，一阵关于大脑发育的研究紧随其后。结果是：人类6000年前便有研究大脑的相关记录，但20多年的研究使我们比过去更了解大脑。

科技的进步教会我们很多，《培养健康大脑》支持日益增强的共识，对大脑发育的研究和教育相关。21世纪初期，家长和教师从这些研究中获益，借助对人脑的新理解重塑抚养和教育模式。

越来越多的人认识到，基因组合、早期经历和环境影响共同作用，塑造了大脑发育的结构。多亏这层认识，我们因此意识到早期生活的重要性，并给予更多关注和审查。我们正在和专业人士一起见证研究风暴，以确保所有孩子都能在早期生活获得所需关注。

《培养健康大脑》一书，形式易于理解，为家长和早期看护人员提供深入了解该研究的好机会，并为儿童健康成长提供可能的最佳环境。(LNL)
