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.

读后感
在分享这篇笔记的时候，我发现我更改了笔的色号，也在迎接我的职业生涯。 这本书花费很久才攻坚下来，（艰，sorry）很久之后去阅读这么一本脑类学家的书，才发现它的精彩之处和困难之点。印象深刻的点可能是在区分人身体结构和精神层次上有了了解，也许心理问题的产生不一定是...

用户评价
近代神经家的见解都倾向于认为“自我”只是一种错觉。威廉詹姆斯说过：“幻觉研究是领悟正常感觉的门径，错觉研究是正确了解知觉的钥匙。病态的冲动和强迫的概念有助于揭示正常意志的心理学，而强迫意念和妄想同样有助于揭示正常信仰能力的心理学。” 通过探索反常的案例来拓展补完我们对一个领域的理解，敢于推翻墨守成规的理论/观念，大胆假设，拥抱paradigm shift，光凭这点就可以膜拜一下作者了，当之无愧的“神经科学界的马可波罗”。顺说他是印度人：）【补充：最后一章有他对Qualia问题的理解，需要反复看。 】
评分非常酷和有趣的书

评分放不下手的书，好看！
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.
