Aaron Thibeault (thebookreporter) | 16 comments Just finished the new book by Dan Hurley called Smarter: The New Science of Building Brain Power. The book gets past the hype of the brain-boosting industry, and explores the actual science on which it is based.

A timely look at a very interesting topic. I've written a full executive summary of the book available here:
