My Stroke of Insight by Jill Bolte Taylor
3.0

I liked it, but wouldn’t tell people about it. Fascinating as a scientist to see some experience their specialty so deeply, and the insights on the structure of the brain were present, but I (perhaps because I haven’t experienced it) wasn’t really able to grasp some of her full brain mumbo jumbo. I also think the over emphasis on dichotomy instead of cooperation was a bit disappointing. The writing felt repetitive.
