Glenn Doman received his degree in physical therapy from the University of Pennsylvania in 1940. From that point on, he began pioneering the field of child brain development. In 1955, he founded The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. By the early 1960s, The Institutes' world-renowned work with brain-injured children had led to vital discoveries regarding the growth and development of well children. The author has lived with, studied, and worked with children in more than one hundred nations, ranging from the most civilized to the most primitive. Doman is also the international best-selling author of six books, all part of the Gentle Revolution Series, including How To Teach Your Baby To Read, How To Teach Your Baby Math, and How To Give Your Baby Encyclopedic Knowledge. Douglas Doman is Vice President of The Institutes and Glenn's son. His early years working at The Institutes were spent creating the School for Human Development for brain-injured young adults. He worked closely with Bruce Hagy to create the world's first Human Development Course, a circuit using physical activities that promote neurological organization and development. Bruce Hagy is the former director of The Institutes for the Achievement of Physical Excellence. He joined The Institutes' staff in 1974 and his background in health and physical education quickly led him to become involved with the physical challenges posed by both well and hurt children.
