Can you become a smarter, faster-thinking, more logical problem-solving and decision-making machine? So far, there is very little in the way of natural cognitive enhancements. From pills and herbs to daily mantras and "brain games", enhancing cognitive abilities is an often touted property for a variety of poorly performing products; motivated, of course, by both ignorance and immoral distortions of the profit motive.
