Well, thank you! I searched for it by title and author and did not find it! In a way, that is discouraging! I'll search again to figure out why I could not find it.

Hi, Everyone,

I plan to submit a book called "Change your brain, Change your Life" by Daniel Amen.

The book is very readable and contains a number of interesting case studies.

I have a question about how to treat the pictures in the book.

In each case study, the author includes a series of pictures of brain scans which contain headings such as the following:


Sally's SPECT Studies<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />



horizontal view at rest



Note goodprefrontal activity (arrows).



horizontal view during concentration



Note marked decreased activity, especially in the prefrontal cortex.



Should I leave these headings as they are or delete them. Scans such as these occur on every tenth page or so, and he covers the results of the scan in his narrative.



Since the information heading the scans is not really helpful, I am tempted to omit them, but if someone were to discuss this book with a person who was looking at the scans, nowing they are there might be useful.



I would appreciate any thoughts on this.



Also, for the first time, yesterday I downloaded a newspaper from Bookshare to read on my bookport. In the past, I have looked up articles on a paper's website or listened to brief sections on the NFB newsline, but I have never before in my whole sixty years had a complete paper at hand to peruse. It was a new experience, and when I told my sister about it I got tears in my eyes.
