The astonishing New York Times bestseller that chronicles how a brain scientist's own stroke led to enlightenment
On December 10, 1996, Jill Bolte Taylor, a thirty-seven- year-old Harvard-trained brain scientist experienced a massive stroke in the left hemisphere of her brain. As she observed her mind deteriorate to the point that she could not walk, talk, read, write, or recall any of her life-all within four hours-Taylor alternated between the euphoria of the intuitive and kinesthetic right brain, in which she felt a sense of complete well-being and peace, and the logical, sequential left brain, which recognized she was having a stroke and enabled her to seek help before she was completely lost. It would take her eight years to fully recover.
For Taylor, her stroke was a blessing and a revelation. It taught her that by "stepping to the right" of our left brains, we can uncover feelings of well-being that are often sidelined by "brain chatter." Reaching wide audiences through her talk at the Technology, Entertainment, Design (TED) conference and her appearance on Oprah's online Soul Series , Taylor provides a valuable recovery guide for those touched by brain injury and an inspiring testimony that inner peace is accessible to anyone.

评分有作者这种超级体验的人，历史上可能少之又少，恰好作者又是位神经科学家。 看完泰勒的视频和书，就会发现，老子的天人合一、致虚极、守静笃，万物并作，吾以观复，老子所谓”为学日益，为道日损“，正是指用暂时关闭左脑，直接右脑去体验世界！ 收集了一点相关资料，在这里htt...

评分一个西方脑科学家在中风的过程中感受到了类似涅槃、三摩地等状态下的平和和喜悦，这种平和和喜悦在我们的右脑中产生。我们平时可以通过关注不同的感官，譬如嗅觉、味觉、听觉、视觉等来让我们产生平和和喜悦，关注自己的情绪，瑜伽、太极等运动也是不错的方式。

神经科学家叙述自己中风及痊愈的经历，视角很独特，就好比比尔盖茨写“我的视窗系统崩溃”。文笔就不是很强，不知是能力问题呢，还是因为中风导致大脑语言区域受损？
