About the Original Book:
Helen Thomson’s first book, Unthinkable: An Extraordinary Journey Through the World’s Strangest Brains, is the tale of nine of the most unbelieveable brain phenomena ever recorded. From a man whose personality changed overnight to a man who believed he was dead, this part-neuroscience, part- narrative dives deep into the personal stories of each of these cases. Rather than present just the science behind these extraordinary phenomena, Thomson takes an intimate approach to unravel more about what these conditions can teach us about our own brains.
