Jill Taylor was a 37-year-old Harvard-trained brain scientist when a blood vessel exploded in her brain. Through the eyes of a curious scientist, she watched her mind deteriorate whereby she could not walk, talk, read, write, or recall any of her life. Because of her understanding of the brain, her respect for the cells in her body, and an amazing mother, Jill completely recovered. In My Stroke of Insight, she shares her recommendations for recovery and the insight she gained into the unique functions of the two halves of her brain. When she lost the skills of her left brain, her consciousness shifted away from normal reality where she felt "at one with the universe." Taylor helps others not only rebuild their brains from trauma, but helps those of us with normal brains better understand how we can consciously influence the neural circuitry underlying what we think, how we feel and how we react to life's circumstances.

My Stroke of Insight
| Customer Rating: | | The information contained in this book was very helpful to me and my family. My twin brother has a tramatic brain injury from a motorcycle accident a year ago. The book enlightened us and gave us knowledge on how to deal with the peaks and valleys. She lists 40 things you should know in the back of the book that are invaluable. I highly recommend the book you will use it as a resource.My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist's Personal Journey |
