Neuroscientist V.S. Ramachandran is internationally renowned for uncovering answers to the deep and quirky questions of human nature that few scientists have dared to address. His bold insights about the brain are matched only by the stunning simplicity of his experiments -- using such low-tech tools as cotton swabs, glasses of water and dime-store mirrors. In Phantoms in the Brain, Dr. Ramachandran recounts how his work with patients who have bizarre neurological disorders has shed new light on the deep architecture of the brain, and what these findings tell us about who we are, how we construct our body image, why we laugh or become depressed, why we may believe in God, how we make decisions, deceive ourselves and dream, perhaps even why we're so clever at philosophy, music and art. Some of his most notable cases: A woman paralyzed on the left side of her body who believes she is lifting a tray of drinks with both hands offers a unique opportunity to test Freud's theory of denial. A man who insists he is talking with God challenges us to ask: Could we be "wired" for religious experience? A woman who hallucinates cartoon characters illustrates how, in a sense, we are all hallucinating, all the time. Dr. Ramachandran's inspired medical detective work pushes the boundaries of medicine's last great frontier -- the human mind -- yielding new and provocative insights into the "big questions" about consciousness and the self.

有效信息密度太低，浪费时间
评分没有拗口的学术语言，通过一个个的案例分析，作者为大家上了一堂非常有趣的神经科学科普课。
评分Ramachandran的书直接买直接看就行了。为什么这么说？看一下该人的wikipedia页面上的介绍。
评分拉瑪醫師：科學（包括宇宙學、演化論，尤其是腦科學）告訴我們，我們在宇宙中沒有特權的地位，而我們有獨立的靈魂『注視世界』的想法亦是一種妄想。這些想法符合東方神秘的傳統，如印度教或禪宗。一旦你了解自己不再是旁觀者，卻是宇宙事件永恆浪潮的一部份時，你會得到解放。這種想法也會讓你培養一種謙虛之心，這是所有真正宗教經驗的真諦。 我个人感觉有点意义疗法的意味，又感觉似乎有一种“我控制我的大脑，还是我的大脑控制我”的感觉。暂时还没有看全书，只是浏览了賴其萬教授关于这本书的解读，http://goo.gl/DN4CC.
