“It’s In Your Head to Heal Thyself” - The Science of the Soul - “Your Brain Wears the White Coat” illustrates our human condition. Dr. Dorsey provides excellent illustrations and examples causing the reader to reflect on their condition. This text is a must read for every minister, teacher, counselor, college student, and human being. This text scholarly addresses how our brain affects our life patterns and explores in-depth how we can become better by understanding who we are. If I was teaching an educational psychology class, this book would be a required reading because every leader must know their own mental condition. One of the crisis in our society is a lack of good leadership because most leaders won’t accept they need to “heal thyself”. This book should become a part of every churches book study because the author causes you to assess yourself. There is a section where you are asked to complete a chart to assess where you fall on a scale. Although this scholarly book is 114, each page is filled with knowledge applicable to every human being. While the book is extremely well written and scholarly, one does not have be an academician to read this and understand each chapter. The author wrote this for everyone to have a growth mindset moment. Once you read - Your Brain Wears the White Coat - you will understand immediately your next steps to improve yourself for life, and you will take those steps outlined in this text and other books written by Dr. Dorsey
