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.

评论 ······
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。
科普+育儿。对我来说，比较清晰地了解了大脑从形成、生长，到思维与行为的形成过程，可以因此观照自己的行为，找出深层次一点的原因，并加以纠正。为了更好的自己！
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
