Buy new: £15.77 / Used from: £12.49
Written from a computer programmer's perspective but probably the best thing I've read on the subject. Exhaustively referenced.
The Art of Learning: An Inner Journey to Optimal PerformanceThe Art of Learning: An Inner Journey to Optimal Performance by Josh Waitzkin
Buy new: £5.66 / Used from: £3.80
Chess & Tai-Chi but generalised to most things. One for learners rather that teachers perhaps.
Brain Rules: 12 Principles for Surviving and Thriving at Work, Home, and School [Large Print]Brain Rules: 12 Principles for Surviving and Thriving at Work, Home, and School [Large Print] by John Medina
Buy new: £12.75
Chatty, opinionated and occassionally smug but bang up to date on the neuroscience. Read this for the real thing rather than all that NLP nonsense.
Mozart's Brain and the Fighter PilotMozart's Brain and the Fighter Pilot by Richard Restak
Buy new: £7.68 / Used from: £2.15
Heavy on theory but with lots of practical exercises and mercifully broken into easily digestible chunks.
Learning How to LearnLearning How to Learn by Joseph D. Novak
Buy new: £18.99 / Used from: £10.59
ridiculously overpriced and written with all the style you would expect from academic educational theorists... Important nonetheless
The Effective Teaching of Biology (Effective Teacher, The)The Effective Teaching of Biology (Effective Teacher, The) by Chris Brown
Buy new: £22.99 / Used from: £38.53
OK so I'm biased; this was written by one of the people who trained me. It is an excellent book and one of very few specifically about biology.
