By jumpy1 (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Switching on: The Whole Brain Answer to Dyslexia (Paperback)
When Switching On came out in 1981, it contained of the most innovative concepts in education -- that learning disabilities such as dyslexia, even serious cases, may not be lifelong and actually can be addressed and treated, with fantastic results, by going about educating the mind by first working with the body. In this book Dr. Paul Dennison gives unique exercises to aid anyone in accessing and speeding up mental processes by first doing simple physical movements. Drs Doman and Delcato originated the concept in the 1960s (when they discovered that crawling was essential for brain/body coordination and development) and Dr. Dennison has followed it through in a most remarkable way. Since this book was published, many advances have occurred in Dr. Dennison's research and I have taught his exercises and principles for years to musicians, actors, dancers, doctors as well as high school and college students, who all found the work to be indispensable. In my own life as a musician, chef and graphic designer I have found the exercises to be highly useful. If this subject interests you, I also recommend "How to Teach Your Baby to be Physically Superb" by Glenn Doman, and "Smart Moves -- Why Learning is Not All in Your Head" by Carla Hannaford, PhD.
