«Me falla la memoria» is the popular science essay by neuropsychologist Álvaro Bilbao, published by RBA in 2012 in paperback (272 pages, in Spanish) with the subtitle «Claves para un envejecimiento cerebral saludable».
Álvaro Bilbao explains in an accessible way how the brain and memory work, and why memory lapses are not always a symptom of a neurodegenerative disease such as Alzheimer's or dementia. He distinguishes worrying forgetfulness from that caused by bad habits, stress or anxiety, and proposes everyday activities and practices —beyond crosswords and sudokus— to exercise memory and prevent cognitive decline, with keys on dietary, social, physical and cognitive habits.
Published by RBA in its popular science collection; released on 20 September 2012, with 272 pages, in paperback and in Spanish.
Recommended for readers who notice everyday forgetfulness and want to know when to worry, as well as for those who wish to care for their brain health or support people with cognitive decline, with a practical approach and no jargon.
