Reclaim Your Brain: A neuroscientist's guide to building a better life: Affirm Press
Autor Dr Mark A Williamsen Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 mar 2027
Dr Mark Williams has spent his career as a cognitive neuroscientist exploring how our brains shape the way we think, feel and live – and how we can harness their remarkable capacity for change.
After a childhood marked by violence and a youth marred by drug abuse, Mark had every reason to believe that our past determines our future. Neuroscience taught him otherwise. Our brains are constantly adapting to the world around us, which means that wherever we start, we have the capacity to change.
Drawing on decades of research, deeply personal experience and inspiring stories from scientists, leaders and ordinary people, Reclaim Your Brain is a practical framework for strengthening the brain and building the inner resources we need to meet whatever life throws at us.
Featuring:
- An accessible guide to your brain: how it works, what it needs and how you can harness its extraordinary capacity for change
- Fascinating insights from neuroscience alongside stories of people who have transformed their own lives and the lives of those around them
- Practical, science-backed strategies to strengthen your physical and psychological health, relationships and resilience
You don’t need a different personality, a perfect past or a life without challenges to live well. Your brain was built to adapt. Reclaim Your Brain is a neuroscientist’s guide to taking back agency, strengthening the foundations of wellbeing and building a better life from the inside out.

Notă biografică
Mark is an internationally recognised professor of cognitive neuroscience, with over 25 years of experience in behavioural and brain imaging research. He has taught at MIT and leading Australian universities, published more than 70 scientific articles, and received prestigious awards, including the CJ Martin and Queen Elizabeth II Fellowships.
Mark’s journey to academic success was far from typical. Raised in a small Victorian town, he struggled in school and only returned to education at 25, rapidly rising to prominence in his field. His groundbreaking research spans brain plasticity, autism, dementia, and face blindness, while he’s pioneered computational brain imaging and the use of virtual reality in science.
Now focused on making neuroscience accessible to the public, Mark runs programs on the neuroscience of learning, emotions, and the impact of modern technology on our brains. Mark’s insights have been featured widely in the media, from how we process emotions to why we can't tickle ourselves. Mark’s first book The Connected Species was published in the US by Rowman & Littlefield and recieved rave reviews, including Publishers’ Weekly, ‘In his eye-opening debut, cognitive neuroscientist Williams argues that humans’ “primitive drive to connect” has shaped “our behavior over millions of years” and that better understanding this impulse can make for a “less divided” future. Pop psychology fans should take note.’
Mark is based on the Northern Beaches of Sydney and plans to write more books in the popular psychology space in the future
