The astonishing New York Times bestseller that chronicles how a brain scientist's own stroke led to enlightenment
On December 10, 1996, Jill Bolte Taylor, a thirty-seven- year-old Harvard-trained brain scientist experienced a massive stroke in the left hemisphere of her brain. As she observed her mind deteriorate to the point that she could not walk, talk, read, write, or recall any of her life-all within four hours-Taylor alternated between the euphoria of the intuitive and kinesthetic right brain, in which she felt a sense of complete well-being and peace, and the logical, sequential left brain, which recognized she was having a stroke and enabled her to seek help before she was completely lost. It would take her eight years to fully recover.
For Taylor, her stroke was a blessing and a revelation. It taught her that by "stepping to the right" of our left brains, we can uncover feelings of well-being that are often sidelined by "brain chatter." Reaching wide audiences through her talk at the Technology, Entertainment, Design (TED) conference and her appearance on Oprah's online Soul Series , Taylor provides a valuable recovery guide for those touched by brain injury and an inspiring testimony that inner peace is accessible to anyone.
讀瞭前7章。 左腦功能喪失,作者分不清自己和世界的邊界,達到瞭真正的無我。因此她說,也就無所謂得失。 她躺在病床上分不清遠近,如同心經中的狀態,無垢無淨。 我還沒寫完,怎麼是短呢? 不能過幾天再寫啊。
評分我幾乎是一口氣讀完瞭這本書。這是一本奇書。是一個另類的生死書或者瀕死記錄。一般來說,經曆過生死的人,迴復到現實生活後,都會産生宗教情感。作者雖是一個腦科學傢,她也相信她是“開悟”瞭。 作為一個佛教徒,很自然的會把書中的一些描述與佛教修證聯係起來。 比如“我”...
評分可能真的是經曆一件事後,會徹底改變自己的人生觀和價值觀。 許多人在左腦無法聞到,嘗到,聽到,看到或觸碰到某件事物時,免不瞭會懷疑該事物是否真的存在。我們的右腦能偵測到超越左腦極限的能量,是因為它本來就被設計成這個樣子。 如果要我選一個字來形容右腦給我的感覺,...
評分許多人終其一生尋道打坐纔能得到的人生頓悟,作者通過一場中風便悟到瞭。 說起來,重復的道路隻有重復的風景。一成不變的生活隻有被意外打斷的時候纔給我們反省的機會。 身為神經解剖學傢的作者花瞭兩章的篇幅來解釋大腦的構造和功能。她完整地記錄下左腦逐漸失去運作,右腦...
評分作者是一個腦神經科學傢.她經曆瞭一次嚴重的中風. 然後又經曆瞭一個長達8年的康復.重新撿起吉他,手工,閱讀,寫作,還有自己的專業工作. 這可能嗎? 是的. 我們身體的塑性強大到超齣我們的想象. 書中也給齣瞭一些附帶哲理的思考. 對於人生的態度,對於我們內心和外在世界的關係, ...

评分神經科學傢敘述自己中風及痊愈的經曆,視角很獨特,就好比比爾蓋茨寫“我的視窗係統崩潰”。文筆就不是很強,不知是能力問題呢,還是因為中風導緻大腦語言區域受損?
