Selling to the Old Brain: How New Discoveries In Brain Research Empower You To Influence Any Audience, Anytime

What is the Old Brain and why is it important to anyone?

New research in neuroscience reveals that the human brain is categorized into three separate parts that act as separate organs with different cellular structures and different functions:

The "New Brain" thinks; it processes rational data.
The "Middle Brain" feels; it processes emotions and feelings.
The "Old Brain" decides; it reviews input from the other two brains and controls the decision making process.

Traditionally, we have been taught to communicate to the New Brain, logically and rationally, while failing to address the true decision maker, the primitive Old Brain, in a language it can understand.

In this groundbreaking book, authors teach how to build and deliver messages that provide maximum impact by speaking directly to the Old Brain. The principles in this unique book will revolutionize the way executives, marketing and sales professionals communicate and sell so they successfully influence any audience, anytime.

Data Smog : Surviving the Information Glut
Revised and Updated Edition

Media scholar (and Internet Enthusiast) David Shenk examines the troubling effects of information proliferation on our bodies, our brains, our relationships, and our culture, then offers strikingly down-to-earth insights for coping with the deluge.

With a skillful mixture of personal essay, firsthand reportage, and sharp analysis, Shenk illustrates the central paradox of our time: as our world gets more complex, our responses to it become increasingly simplistic.He draws convincing links between data smog and stress distraction, indecision, cultural fragmentation, social vulgarity, and more.

But there's hope for a saner, more meaningful future, as Shenk offers a wealth of novel prescriptions—both personal and societal—for dispelling data smog.
