3 quotes from Phantoms in the Brain

  • "The brain is the most complex structure in the universe, and yet it remains an enigma to us. Understanding the brain is the ultimate frontier of science."
  • "Reality is a construct of the mind; our perceptions shape the world around us, and understanding this can unlock the mysteries of human consciousness."
  • "Every phantom, every illusion, is a window into understanding how the brain creates the sense of self and reality, revealing the intricate dance between perception and interpretation."

Author : V.S. Ramachandran

Vilayanur S. Ramachandran, often referred to as "Rama," is a distinguished neurologist renowned for his groundbreaking contributions to behavioral neurology and psychophysics. He serves as the Director of the Center for Brain and Cognition, as well as a Professor in the Psychology Department and Neurosciences Program at the University of California, San Diego, and holds an adjunct professorship in Biology at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies. Ramachandran earned his M.D. from Stanley Medical College in Madras, India, followed by a Ph.D. from Trinity College, University of Cambridge. Initially focusing on visual perception, his later work in behavioral neurology has significantly influenced contemporary understanding of the brain. A prominent figure in his field, he has been elected as a fellow at All Souls College, Oxford, and the Royal Institution in London, which recognized him with the Henry Dale Medal. His accolades include delivering the prestigious BBC Reith Lectures in 2003 and receiving the Padma Bhushan from the President of India in 2007. Distinguished thinkers such as Richard Dawkins and Eric Kandel have lauded him with titles reflecting his impact, and Newsweek magazine recognized him as one of the century's most important figures to watch.
