Neuroscientists Sandra Aamoott and Sam Wang recently concluded:
Research on working memory training raises the possibility that the fast-paced modern world, despite its annoyances (or even because of them) may be improving our reasoning ability. Maybe even multitasking - not the most efficient way to work - is good for your brain because of the mental challenge. Something to think about when you're contemplating retirement on a deserted island.
