About this book

The Tell-Tale Brain is a thought-provoking book by V. S. Ramachandran. The book looks at a range of peculiar and unforgettable cases, from individuals who are convinced they are deceased to those troubled with phantom limb syndrome. Ramachandran presents seven key concepts that encapsulate the human sense of self.

V. S. Ramachandran

Ramachandran works out what the brain does by finding people in whom something has gone wrong, then testing an idea with cotton buds and mirrors rather than with a scanner. Mirror box therapy, which relieves phantom limb pain by giving the brain a reflection of the remaining hand, grew out of that approach and cost almost nothing.
