Clint Eastwood’s movie, ‘The Good, The bad and The Ugly’, became the instrument of a study to understand the secrets of brain evolution.

Brain Exercises to Improve Memory
An active brain can certainly help in improving memory by strengthening the connections between neural impulses in brain.

This discovery may be the foundation of a precise explanation of our evolution.
