From Booklist , January 1, 1996
Wise studied for eight years with C. Maxwell Cade, codeveloper
of an electroencephalograph, the Mind Mirror EEG, which was specially
designed to read the brain waves of those in a meditative state.
Continuing Cade’s research into brain-wave biofeedback, Wise has
become the leading authority on this device. Her purpose here
is to discuss and illustrate the four types of brain waves—beta,
alpha, theta, and delta—with emphasis on what they do, how they
work together, and whether we can use their power. Harnessing
human brain waves for heightened creativity, inspiration, and
self-healing is the major goal. Several pages of meditation exercises
are included with tips on how to relax, all designed to trigger
specific brain-wave patterns and achieve a high-performance mind.
With so much attention currently focused on achieving more from
our hectic lifestyles, these techniques may benefit those who
are committed to mastering their brain waves. Wise’s strong beliefs
and evidence of success are convincing arguments for giving her
methods a try. Jennifer Henderson

Synopsis
Using the latest scientific research and dozens of case histories,
Wise shows readers how the four types of brainwaves—beta, alpha,

and perception. |
