Phantoms in the Brain: Probing the Mysteries of the Human Mind Free Audiobook Download by V. S. Ramachandran,Sandra Blakeslee

V. S. Ramachandran is a renowned neuroscientist and author of Phantoms in the Brain: Probing the Mysteries of the Human Mind, which he wrote and self-published in 1999. The work explores how the brain creates its own "mental movies" by grouping together pieces of information it receives from outside the brain. This insight is what inspired Ramachandran to explore how people might be able to expand their minds beyond their physical limitations.

Ramachandran talks about how a phantom limb is a sensation of the body part that you lost. He also discusses phantom limbs in the brain and the different types of phantoms.

V. S. Ramachandran (b. 1948) is a neurologist who has spent his life studying the brain, how it processes information, and how it creates our sense of self. In his book, Phantoms in the Brain: Probing the Mysteries of the Human Mind, he explores where these ideas come from and why they matter.

The book covers a wide range of topics, such as consciousness, memory and hypnosis. As the author explains, "Scientists are finding that the brain is not just a computer, but also an organ with its own special needs and characteristics." The narrator helps bring these abstract ideas to life in vivid detail.

The book provides a new perspective on the brain, giving it a depth that people have been missing for centuries. The author starts out by explaining how the brain is built. He then talks about how the brain develops and its evolutionary history. Next he begins to explain how the brain works and its structure. Finally, he covers everything from memory to emotions-why we feel them, what they are made of, and how they affect our behavior.
