THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER *As heard on Chris Evans' Virgin Radio*
'You're amazing I could talk to you (Rahul) all day' Chris Evans
'This is a gripping new book' The Times World-leading
neuroscientist and neurosurgeon Dr Rahul Jandial draws on his years
of work with patients suffering from the most extreme cases of
brain damage, disorders and illnesses to reveal what they can tell
us about the science of the mind. From a languages teacher who has
to choose whether to lose her ability to speak Spanish or English
after brain surgery, to a former TV exec, now homeless, who
discovers that his life-altering despondency is the result of a
tumour, to a fainting teen who learns that deep breathing can mean
the difference between life or death, these stories uncover the
secret workings of the brain. Blending cutting-edge research and
beautiful storytelling, Life Lessons from a Brain Surgeon is a
vital resource on the best ways to boost your memory, control
stress and emotions, minimize pain, unleash your creativity, raise
smart kids and reduce the risk of Alzheimer's. This is a deeply
practical and readable book, which will take you on an expedition
through the anatomy of the most fascinating - and mysterious - of
organs. Rahul's new book Life on a Knife's Edge is out now.
