Here, a leading neurobiologist offers an intriguing scientific approach to understanding the neurobiology of the self.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Drawing on both the latest neuroscientific research, as well as the author's decades of experience with neurological patients, \u003cem\u003eFrom Axons to Identity\u003c\/em\u003e examines the link between brain and identity in fascinating new ways. Dr. Feinberg presents case studies of individuals with brain pathologies and unusual psychiatric syndromes that cause them to deny parts of their bodies or believe in the presence of mysterious imposters or imaginary friends, and then presents a groundbreaking new theory of these conditions that relates them to the normal course of psychological development. By examining what goes wrong in individuals with these conditions, Dr. Feinberg presents an engaging new theory with far-reaching implications for the link between brain and identity. \u003cem\u003eFrom Axons to Identity\u003c\/em\u003e proposes a new view of the processes of the brain and the self that is unique and revelatory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Todd E.
