Good!!!!!’

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thoughtful perspective
*by D***H on June 23, 2013*

I enjoyed reading this book. It was not too complex or too detailed for the lay person. It was an honest and thoughtful perspective of a neurosurgeon who asks questions philosophically regarding the origin and energy source with regard to the mind. The brain is an organic structure that functions much like a computer. The mind is more like the programmer. His first hand experience of working with patients with epilepsy and the responses of these when electrical stimulation was applied to various regions of the brain help to support his premise.

I found Penfield's writing about the "mind" and "spirit" to be fascinating. Scientists know what part of the brain is responsible for things like speech, sight, memory, sight, hearing, movement, etc. But what makes humans act and think the way we do? What is responsible for thought, reasoning, conscience, and those things that cant be measured? He describes the brain to be like a "computer that needs to be programmed". I found all his writing to be very interesting and informative. Some of the medical information was over my head as a lay person. But as a former patient of Montreal Neurological Hospital who had this very surgery while Awake for epilepsy, it brought back many memories of how they "poked" around in my brain and it created sensations in various areas of my body. For anyone interested in how the brain and mind work, this is an easy to read, interesting book. Like Dr. Feindel says in the introduction:" the brain is the most organized structure in the universe".
