Seeking to understand what's different about the brains of world-class performers, Maharishi University of Management faculty members Harald Harung and Fred Travis have published a series of studies on top athletes, managers, and musicians—findings that are now being presented in a new book.

Titled Excellence Through Mind-Brain Development: The Secrets of World-Class Performers, the book describes the key to high performance: an integrated brain. Using EEG and a measure developed by Dr. Travis, the authors have found that world-class performers tend to get high scores on the Brain Integration Scale.

In addition, they tend to report peak experiences such as greatly expanded awareness, effortless action, a sense of invincibility, and peak performance.
The book details a sequence of fundamental shifts to new realities in the way the brains of top performers function, and in the way they look upon themselves, others, and the world.

The authors write, "For success, who we are is far more important than the knowledge, skills, and relationships we have and what we do—because with higher mind-brain development, our knowledge and skills become more useful, our relationships more enriching, and our actions more effective."

The book also presents research showing that the Transcendental Meditation technique is the most effective technique for fostering mind-brain development.

Published by Gower, a major academic press, the book can be ordered online.
