Historia
We're all getting older every day, and scientific research has shown that starting in our 20s, some brain functions begin a linear decline. But is old age all doom and gloom? Not at all! While it's true that some functions in the aging brain decline, neuroscientists have discovered that many other brain functions remain stable - or even improve - as we age.

Brief view of how the conversation could fit
Revisado: 11-16-13
Where does Effective Communication Skills rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Brief view of the different steps , factors and implications involved in conversationGender's sides, intonation patterns, manners and skills are conidered. It is good enough for tips
What was one of the most memorable moments of Effective Communication Skills?
Gender's sides
Did Professor Dalton Kehoe do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?
So so-By listening is is limited. Because of conversation implies visual approach, the book does not convince at all
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Good try
Any additional comments?
It is a good view and STUDY but maybe with visual aids would be excellent. What do you think?
