  • Yes, it is interesting how different people see and use their brains... I used her book to do a research essay, here is the link.  I have autism in my family too, I see it as just a different way for someone to operate in the world...

  • I'm going to have to get it.  My brother is autistic and a few others in my family the same so I always found brain function fascinating how we can see things one way and someone else can see the total opposite. Like me I have a certain degree of color blindness purples reds and blues are shakey for me lol who's to say maybe I see them correctly but the other person don't just fascinating thank you very much

  • You're welcome :-)  You can find her book online for free too if you do a search, it's fascinating. 

  • This was awesome thanks for sharing
  • http://www.ted.com Neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor had an opportunity few brain scientists would wish for: One morning, she realized she was having a massive stroke. As it happened -- as she felt her brain functions slip away one by one, speech, movement, understanding -- she studied and remembered every moment. This is a powerful story about how our brains define us and connect us to the world and to one another.
