Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Improving Memory Through Creativity
Amanda Pike · 2014
80/100
👍 Worth It
Pike's doctoral research foundation and Jessica Kingsley's specialist credibility make this a trustworthy entry point for practitioners working on cognitive training with older adults. The cultural sensitivity framework fills a genuine gap in the field, and the session-ready structure means clinicians can actually use it rather than just read it. Highly specialized, but within that specialty it's a genuinely strong resource.
