"Different minds learn differently," writes Dr. Mel Levine, one of the best-known learning experts and pediatricians in America today. Some students are strong in certain areas and some are strong in others, but no one is equally capable in all. Yet most schools still cling to a one-size-fits-all education philosophy. As a result, many children struggle because their learning patterns don't fit the way they are being taught. In his #1 New York Times bestseller A Mind at a Time, Dr. Levine shows parents and those who care for children how to identify these individual learning patterns, explaining how they can strengthen a child's abilities and either bypass or help overcome the child's weaknesses, producing positive results instead of repeated frustration and failure. Consistent progress can result when we understand that not every child can do equally well in every type of learning and begin to pay more attention to individual learning patterns -- and individual minds -- so that we can maximize children's success and gratification in life. In A Mind at a Time Dr. Levine shows us how.

We knew he was albino with severe vision problems (possibly legally blind) and I felt I needed to understand the different ways kids learn and fail to learn and how we can overcome them -- as parents and... I began to judge everyone less after reading this book. The chapter on memory was positively astonishing to me. Though it does read a bit like a text book it is well worth the effort! I do not believe he is "guilt tripping" teachers rather than simply opting for a reduction in class size as one reviewer accused him of. This man is a... I read this book as a required text in one of my Masters classes. It was so interesting! It talks about the different ways in which students and children process information and where different breakdowns may occur in that process which would cause students to have problems. Sometimes these problems can manifest themselves and be misdiagnosed...
