Home Author Archive For Librarians Authors: Get Included Ingrid Cummings Dear Reader, Is it possible to become a "Renaissance person" (think Leonardo) in our modern era? The ancient eastern philosophy known as Kaizen makes it achievable. THE VIGOROUS MIND argues that we all need to cognitively "cross-train" and diversify our brain's portfolio. My book represents both a social critique and a self-improvement program. It offers an antidote to "mental malnutrition," over-specialized careers, and unexplained ennui. Build a more complex, interconnected brain, and replace frenetic busy-ness and indifference with cognitive re-engagement. THE VIGOROUS MIND speaks to two of the unacknowledged maladies of our time: excessive specialization; and the mis-use of our leisure time. Visit www.thevigorousmind.com.
