The Leading Edge series unites education authorities from around the globe and asks them to confront the important issues that affect teachers and administrators the issues that profoundly impact student success.
Mind, Brain, and Education is a landmark publication in the emerging science of educational neuroscience.

The contributors investigate such questions as the following:
- What are the neurological foundations of learning and of individual differences in learning?

- What does neuroscience reveal about the brain s ability to use written and spoken language, to use mathematics, and to think creatively?
- How can educational neuroscience improve the teaching of these abilities?
