Synopsis

This is the real stuff.

It's about the people who make the decisions on how cases are handled, the different units and bureaus in the prosecutor's office, and takes the reader into "the room where it happens," the place where decisions are made at the highest level and where policy is set.

Written from a prosecutor's standpoint, this book touches on the relevant and timely issues facing the country and law enforcement today. It deals with police and prosecutor relationships, drug legalization, the opioid crisis, and dealing with violent juvenile crime.

    Why can't you remember where you put your keys? Or the title of the movie you saw last week? Anyone older than forty knows that forgetfulness can be unnerving, frustrating, and sometimes terrifying. With compassion and humor, acclaimed journalist Cathryn Jakobson Ramin explores the factors that determine how well or poorly one's brain will age. She takes readers along on her lively journey—consulting with experts in the fields of sleep, stress, traumatic brain injury, hormones, genetics, and dementia, as well as specialists in nutrition, cognitive psychology, and the burgeoning field of drug-based cognitive enhancement. Along the way, she turns up fresh scientific findings, explores the dark regions of the human brain, and hears the intimate confessions of high-functioning midlife adults who—like so many of us—are desperate to understand exactly what's going on upstairs.
