内容简介

What’s the single most important thing you can do during pregnancy? What does watching TV do to a child’s brain? What’s the best way to handle temper tantrums? Scientists know.

In his New York Times bestseller Brain Rules , Dr. John Medina showed us how our brains really workand why we ought to redesign our workplaces and schools. Now, in Brain Rules for Baby , he shares what the latest science says about how to raise smart and happy children from zero to 5. This book is destined to revolutionize parenting. Just one of the surprises: The best way to get your children into the college of their choice? Teach them impulse control.

Brain Rules for Baby bridges the gap between what scientists know and what parents practice. Through fascinating and funny stories, Medina, a developmental molecular biologist and dad, unravels how a child’s brain develops--and what you can do to optimize it.

You will view your childrenand how to raise themin a whole new light. You’ll learn:

Where nature ends and nurture begins

Why men should do more household chores

What you do when emotions run hot affects how your child turns out

TV is harmful for children under 2

Your child’s ability to relate to others predicts her future math performance

Smart and happy are inseparable. Pursuing your child’s intellectual success at the expense of his happiness achieves neither

Praising effort is better than praising intelligence

The best predictor of academic performance is not IQ. It’s self control

What you do right nowbefore pregnancy, during pregnancy, and through the first five yearswill affect your children for the rest of their lives. Brain Rules for Baby is an indispensable guide.

    Amazon五星。有趣的是,唯一一个2星评价是在抱怨这本书写的太硬科学了,实在读不动。嘿嘿。10-26

    作者的写作风格并不是那么严谨,很多生活化的类比我觉得没有必要,也许他觉得只有这样才能让美国家长读懂?知识内容方面还是可以参考的。01-15

    缺少趣味。只把孕育阶段基本读完。03-27
  • 50% 为基本原则 30%性格要素 初为人父母这本是为推荐读物 包括幼儿教师也很推荐参看04-30

    最关键的几个点对我来说并不是新知识。听有声书不方便记笔记,所以我打算多看几本,如果说法不一就当兼听则明,如果大同小异就当温故知新。母乳可以让孩子更聪明这个观点Emily Oster的书里就有不同的观点,这个作者似乎没考虑confounding factors07-23
