Phantoms in the Brain

Someshwar Roy 2011 Book Review of Ramachandran & Blakeslee’s Phantoms in the Brain

“Since the way we experience the world around us is almost entirely wired in the brain, the chance of “reality” being actually the (collectively) common aspects of personal brain maps of humans becomes an option, even if probabilistically remote. Then, those aspects of our brain maps which we do not share with the masses give meaning to our individuality. In short, the eerie concept of the world, in reality, not being the way we experience it, becomes a possibility" rerylikes.tumblr.com
