Product Description:
Mental Sharpening Stones: Manage the Cognitive Challenges of Multiple Sclerosis provides real-life techniques garnered from MS patients and their medical providers, sharing their practical methods for pushing back against the disruptive and potentially disabling cognitive symptoms that affect MS patients. The book offers strategies that will assist those living with MS to retain their intellectual faculties through sharpening their mental discipline.

Summary: Not as good as the first
Rating: 4

I have purchased both of Mr. Gingold's books. Both have useful information, but I found his first book has more general information and living tips. This book, Mental Sharpening Stones, is much more of a "you can do it" type. Each chapter profiles a person dealing with MS, but doesn't provide the coping skills that the first book offered. Still, it is an interesting read.

Summary: Excellent Book
Rating: 5

I highly recomend this insightful book for people with MS and those who love them.

Summary: An Invaluable Resource
Rating: 4

Jeffrey Gingold, internationally acclaimed author and Multiple Sclerosis sufferer, has assembled an exceptional collection of articles and interviews featuring techniques for increasing and maintaining cognitive awareness. The majority of the informative articles in this collection contain numerous helpful tips on how to keep mental faculties sharp and attentive, and ways to keep the stumbling blocks of Multiple Sclerosis from getting in the way of functioning professionally and privately. These include everything from mental exercises and organizational tips, to handy tools that can be utilized to cope with some of the physical setbacks, such as voice recognition programs for word processors. If you or a loved one has MS, this book will prove to be a useful resource for day to day living.
