Format:Taschenbuch
Jill Bolton tells us in amazing detail how she lived a stroke which one morning affected an important part of the left hemisphere of her brain, and how she slowly recovered from that affliction to return, many years later, to an (almost) normal life. More importantly, she tells us how it feels to live with only the right hemisphere of your brain being functional, how, next to the suffering from the severe impairments that come with lack of many of your cognitive abilities, you actually *gain* what Bolton calls "a deep inner peace". This made her reflect on the importance of bringing the two halves of your brain into equilibrium, to lead a life where you can profit fully from your cognitive abilities while your life is not completely dictated by this way of using your brain.
Although towards the end the books veers a bit towards the esoterical, I found it utterly captivating and read it with great pleasure and interest.

Excellent insight about stroke victims
14. August 2011
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
My husband had just been through this type of stroke when a friend recommended this book. Although his "bleed" was much much smaller (1cm) and he didn't need surgery, I found Jill's journey and thoughts tremendously helpful! It is such a relief to better understand what they are going through and how much they need sleep. My husband was put on strong anti-seizure medicine which really affected his mood and personality. I was so grateful for all the good information she included. I would recommend this book to everyone who has had a stroke or been the caregiver of a stroke victim. It's also full of information on how the brain works. Excellent and loaded with insight!

A Unique Insight into the Inner Working of the Human Brain
31. Dezember 2011
Format:Kindle Edition
I was given this book as gift and was a little dubious about its subject. Why would I want to read about somebody having a stroke, it hardly seemed a cheerful topic? But once I started to read the story of this bright woman brain researcher who undergoes a major lesion of the left hemisphere of her brain, I found the topic quite fascinating.
There are many books written about the different functions and abilities of the two halves of a human brain, but hardly any descriptions of what it feels like to have the left side of your brain totally knocked out of commission, to live for months with only the right brain fully functioning and then to have the left brain restored to almost full working capacity. And the writer of this account is a woman who understands the anatomy and internal operations of the brain.
If you want to really understand the difference between the functions of the left and right brains this book is the fullest and most lucid account you are every likely to find. It is not unusual for a trained scientist to have a stroke, but it very rare such a skilled observer of brain functions to live through a major stroke and then recover fully and be able to write about it is in such intimate detail.

Kudos for My Stroke of Insight
28. Juli 2011
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
As a health care professional, I was especially interested in the author's advice on how stroke patients need to be approached, giving them time to process questions and formulate answers.
