Chaos Me!

The way chaos improves your creativity and enhances your life Our brains adapt so readily to training regimens, that such routines lose their benefits over time. This book explores ways to get past these obstacles by setting aside order and routine and seeking what many tend to think of as anathema to normal living - chaos. This chaos which is achieved by mixing up the brain in a figurative blender, can improve its neuron connections and by doing so, help develop greater creativity and open up new ways to enhance life and living.

The loss of Dan's wife to a terminal illness jolts him into making an odd career shift. He abandons the sense of orderliness he once embraced, replacing it with a more random approach to life. In his search for greater meaning, he begins to explore a whole range of heterogenic topics including: history, art, science, computers, and cyberspace.

Dan's quest reflects upon the brains' uncanny ability to adapt to change. His journey illustrates how the engine that runs the body is a lot more capricious than we realize, and that we can apply this realization to getting past obstacles on the road to self-improvement.
