Description
Unthinkable: An Extraordinary Journey Through the World's Strangest Brains
Helen Thomson takes us on an unforgettable journey through the human brain, exploring the experiences of nine extraordinary people with rare and fascinating brain disorders.
From those who think they're animals to doctors who feel others' pain just by looking at them, their stories illustrate how our brains shape our lives in unexpected ways. Delving into the latest research and cutting-edge medical techniques, Thomson sheds light on the workings of our consciousness, emotions, creativity, and even our understanding of existence.
