In 1996, 37-year-old neuroanatomist Taylor experienced a massive stroke that erased her abilities to walk, talk, do mathematics, read, or remember details. Her remarkable story details her slow recovery of those abilities (and the cultivation of new ones) and recounts exactly what happened with her brain. Read proficiently by the author, this is a fascinating memoir of the brain's remarkable resiliency and of one woman's determination to regain her faculties and recount her experience for the benefit of others. Taylor repeatedly describes her "stroke of insight"-a tremendous gratitude for, and connection with, the cells of her body and of every living thing-and says that although she is fully recovered, she is not the same driven, type-A scientist that she was before the stroke. Her holistic approach to healing will be valuable to stroke survivors and their caregivers, who can pick up suggestions from Taylor's moving accounts of how her mother faithfully loved her back to life. A Viking hardcover.

评分 评分这本书彻底疏通了我对宗教以及各类灵修的认识。 其实每种修行方法强调的都是放下,放空,接受。接受心念一致的当下,才能接触到人生的真相。 其实这本书里, Jill这个脑神经研究专家以自己的亲身中风后的感受告诉你。人类一直以来用错了大脑。我们每个人都以左...
评分我几乎是一口气读完了这本书。这是一本奇书。是一个另类的生死书或者濒死记录。一般来说,经历过生死的人,回复到现实生活后,都会产生宗教情感。作者虽是一个脑科学家,她也相信她是“开悟”了。 作为一个佛教徒,很自然的会把书中的一些描述与佛教修证联系起来。 比如“我”...
