If you've no room for another brain-development title, weed an old one to make room for this. Best-selling author Medina (Brain Rules) presents the best of the refereed literature to examine how infants process information at the molecular, cellular, and behavioral levels. Recent brain science has debunked such myths as playing Mozart in utero to boost IQ and exposed important truths like the relationship between IQ and birth weight and how maternal stress influences prenatal development. Covering such topics as pregnancy, relationships, and "moral" babies, the book will educate even the most learned parents. Medina's humorous, conversational style makes this an absolute pleasure to read. As important as Po Bronson's Nurtureshock, this made my top five of 2010. . -"Parenting Short Takes", Booksmack!, 12/16/10. (c) Copyright 2010.
