DESCRIPTION

How the Arts Transform Us
A New York Times bestseller, Your Brain on Art is the life-altering journey through the science of neuroaesthetics, which offers proof for how our brains and bodies transform when we participate in the arts

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
A WATERSTONES BEST BOOK OF 2023
BARNES & NOBLE'S BEST SCIENCE & NATURE BOOKS OF 2023


The arts can deliver potent, accessible and proven solutions for the wellbeing of everyone.

In this book, Magsamen and Ross offer compelling research that shows how engaging in an art project for as little as forty-five minutes reduces the stress hormone cortisol and just one art experience per month can extend your life by ten years. This can be anything from painting and dancing to expressive writing, architecture and more - no matter your skill level.

Your Brain on Art is an authoritative guide to how neuroaesthetics can help us transform traditional healing, build healthier communities and mend an aching planet.
