As a certified personal development coach who also holds a PhD I am always interested in great self-help strategies that are grounded in the scientific behavioral research findings; as opposed to empty fluff with pie-in-the-sky promises. Dr. Glassman is the real deal. Genuine, knowledgeable, and sincere in his mission to help people live happier lives. In Brain Drain, his research, expertise, and altruism come together in a beautiful expression that gives us "hand-on" strategies that can really have an effect on the quality of our lives. I highly recommend this book for anyone who feels drained, beaten down by their situations, or who simple needs to recharge and enjoy life to the fullest.

This book is my personal inspirational bible. You want to share it with anyone you care about. The warning is that once you start to read each page, you just keep motivating yourself on to the next, with the feeling that you are not alone after all. Dr. Glassman's sensitive wisdom is pronounced throughout the chapters. He is with you, cover to cover, guiding the reader to awaken the power of mind, body and spirit which is never too late to instigate. Dr. Glassman reveals how we all learn from each other as long as we are open to do so. His guidance and compassion for his patients has been proven and after reading this book all rolled into one package, you will discover that it is good to break the law...the law of the `automatic brain' that is.

Although Dr. Glassman suggests reading one chapter of Brain Drain per week, I couldn't put it down and read it in a couple of days. The information in the book is practical, easy to understand, and very helpful. I have already shared the concept of the "automatic brain" and used the "revelation grid" with family members and friends who were dealing with anxiety and other stresses. Dr. Glassman shares his insight in an informal tone with personal stories that illustrate his ideas. Reading the book feels like having a relaxed discussion with a caring physician and coach. I look forward to sharing this book with patients and friends.

Your book is fascinating, and so well organized. Your writing style is both very informative and friendly and draws the reader into your thoughts. You really made me THINK and enabled me to bring out and appreciate so much that lies hidden in the depths of one's mind.

I know I'll be a lot better off for having read it! Many thanks.

Brain Drain is a wonderful holistic guide for healing our psyche. To connect with our true essence will not only aid our physical healing but also engender a more peaceful state of mind.

This book has great incite. It is a new way of thinking (and living) which will be of value to every reader.

This extraordinary book guides the reader through a journey of self-awareness and discovery that leads to the removal of self-imposed barriers to happiness and fulfillment. Dr. Glassman interweaves the lessons of medical science, psychology, history, and theology to explain how the human brain operates in guiding our behavior, and how we can harness the greater power of our mind to work for our best interests, not against them. Drawing from his own experiences and those of his patients, Dr. Glassman offers thought-provoking insights and techniques that give the reader the tools to overcome obstacles and achieve goals. Highly recommended!

Dr. Glassman has the ability to speak through the written word as though he is speaking with you face to face. The knowledge he shares is presented in a very readable and inspiring way. It is exciting to think that his ability to help others has been greatly expanded through his book. I am certain that many will be positively influenced by his book.

I lost count of how many times I recognized my own behavior in this book. All through it I found my self saying; "Oh yeah, I've done that!" Or "I've felt that way!" It was great to find that my way of thinking is not at all uncommon. I've learned from Dr. Glassman how NOT to jump to conclusions, how not to accept those first "panic" thoughts as gospel. I no longer automatically think the worst or expect worst case scenarios. I've learned to think in terms of PROBABILITY vs POSSIBILITY. BRAIN DRAIN has been a life changer for me and I highly recomend it.
