Drawing on decades of neurological research, V. S. Ramachandran uses real patient cases—such as those involving phantom limbs, synesthesia, and neurological syndromes—to illustrate how abnormalities in the brain can reveal fundamental truths about how it works. Through engaging storytelling, he explains how the brain constructs our sense of self, why humans evolved unique abilities like language and art, and how neural circuits give rise to emotions, decision-making, and culture. The book blends neuroscience, psychology, and evolutionary theory to show that the brain is both a biological organ and the source of our deepest human experiences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"955\" data-end=\"981\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"959\" data-end=\"979\"\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"982\" data-end=\"1780\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDr. V. S. Ramachandran \u003c\/strong\u003eis an internationally renowned neuroscientist known for his pioneering work in behavioral neurology and the study of neurological disorders that provide insight into brain function. He is a professor at the University of California, San Diego, and director of the Center for Brain and Cognition. Often called the “Marco Polo of neuroscience,” Ramachandran is widely respected for his inventive experiments and accessible explanations of complex brain phenomena. His research on phantom limbs, synesthesia, mirror neurons, and the neurological basis of creativity and self-awareness has made him one of the most influential thinkers in contemporary neuroscience. He is also the author of several popular science books that bridge scientific discovery and public understanding.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Clapping Pages","offers":[{"title":"Used","offer_id":45157620351162,"sku":"2R7HO162P-Used","price":29.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/5576\/0826\/files\/V.S.Ramachandran.jpg?v=1763534577","url":"https:\/\/clappingpages.com\/products\/the-tell-tale-brain","provider":"Clapping Pages","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
