This is a book written for a US audience, which will inevitably limit its immediate appeal for other readers. There does, however, appear to be a slight resurgence in interest in the implications of the applications of neuroscience to classroom practice, which it will help to meet.

The neuroscience itself is basic, but gives a useful overview without burdening the reader with excessive technical detail.

Jane Essex reviews Captivate, activate and invigorate the student brain in science and math and considers its relevance for UK teachers.
