Reflections On Dr. Ramachandran's TED Talk
Basically, in this TED Talk, he talked about the parts of the brain. Like what happens if you had problem in certain areas . First of all he started talking about brain rejecting that you see your mom but your brain refuse to admit. That was because you had sexual urges toward your mom, so your brain deny the truth. After that he talk about phantom arm or leg. It basically means that you feel the pain even the arm was amputated, he had few patient that felt the pain and the patient said if the arm cluches, it won't hurt. But if the arm don't move...they feel the pain. So Ramachandran did a test, which he makes the patient close his eyes and then the patient felt the pain. But when he opens his eyes he tells that it's moving and it doesn't hurt at all. So basically he is a guy that is smart in brain knoledge.
