Successful cognitive and emotional aging is not the same as successful physical aging, and yet, until recently, medical research and public health initiatives have focused solely on the latter. The editors of this new book are doing their best to change that. Their new volume bridges the gap between popular science for a lay audience and the heavily theoretical, academic approach of other books on the aging brain. The book provides not only the scientific foundations of cognitive aging and a review of research supporting specific interventions, but also down-to-earth, evidence-based strategies for diet, exercise, cognitive training, and environment. As the population ages, the need for practical treatment strategies and interventions becomes more pressing. Thankfully, as the authors make clear, it is never too early or too late to improve brain health. "Successful Cognitive and Emotional Aging" should prove invaluable to both clinicians and the patients they treat and advise.
