Sommario/riassunto

The Lost Self: Pathologies of the Brain and Identity is an in-depth exploration into one of the most mysterious and controversial topics in neuroscience, neurology, psychiatry, and psychology-namely, the search for the biological basis of the self. The Lost Self is a guide to understanding how the brain creates who we are, and what happens when things go wrong.
