About the book
V. S. Ramachandran, a renowned neuroscientist, takes the reader on a fascinating journey through extraordinary clinical cases that reveal how the brain constructs reality. From patients who deny owning their own limbs to those who see colors when they hear sounds, Ramachandran describes neurological disorders that illuminate the fundamental workings of the mind.
With clear prose and infectious scientific curiosity, the author shows how these rare conditions are not mere medical curiosities, but windows into understanding the nature of consciousness, perception, and human identity.
