This book has major examples of people with malfunctioning brains and what they reveal for our sane brains. After that, comes the distinction between material and immaterial brain. Although, I expected only metaphysics to deal with the immaterial mind/spirit/soul, this work reveals that matter is precious per se as it evolves in complicated structure. I am not a neurologist or biologist, so it was quite simple for me to understand. I am very grateful to Todd E. Feinberg who revealed his knowledge in a comprehensive way.
