Episode one of a two-part BBC-4 special program hosted by neurologist VS Ramachandran that explains his key findings in certain instances of brain damage that have long been viewed as mere curiosities by the scientific community. This episode focuses on blind-sight, phantom-limbs, anosognosia, and hemispatial neglect. My apologies for the audio being slightly off, the black bar at the bottom of the video, as well as the temporary video defects; this was the only copy of the video I could find. This is Part 5 of 5.
The panorama of your mind is full of high rise cities, vast rail networks, large new riverside developments as well as villages and towns, some ghost towns, scattered throughout the countryside – all within the distant sound of a holy war. Be inspired as Dave Gilpin explains the power of understanding your mind.
