Trei indicii pentru descifrarea creierului

The hidden wiring of the brain shapes everything from recognition to creativity, as shown by rare conditions like the Capgras delusion and phantom limb pain. A patient might see his mother’s face yet insist she is an impostor, or feel agonizing pain in a missing arm.
