Solid and Readable Science
I’m into brain books. My personal library has nearly a dozen, from scholarly texts to popular, from brain injury to legal defense issues. This is one of the best. The science is sound and up to date. The writing is excellent. The illustrations are informative. Highly recommend.

This title explains how the brain works, especially when it comes to depression and recovery. It compares brain activity to a system running behind the scenes — like how payments process in the background. When something goes wrong in the brain, it can affect emotions just like a glitch affects a transaction. The idea of recovery is like fixing that system so it runs smoothly again. It shows how brain functions can get “out of sync” and what helps get them back on track. The topic is meaningful and well-connected to real-life struggles with mental health. Some of the wording feels a bit long or complex, like a receipt with too much fine print. But overall, it offers helpful insight in an understandable way. It’s a good pick for anyone curious about how the brain supports emotional healing. Think of it as a user-friendly guide to what’s happening “behind the scenes” in your mind.
