The mind electric : a neurologist on the strangeness and wonder of our brains / by Anand, Pria,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.In this collection of medical tales a neurologist reckons with the stories we tell about our brains, and the stories our brains tell us. A girl believes she has been struck blind for stealing a kiss. A mother watches helplessly as each of her children is replaced by a changeling. A woman is haunted each month by the same four chords of a single song. In neurology, illness is inextricably linked with narrative, the clues to unravelling these mysteries hidden in both the details of a patient's story and the tells of their body. Stories are etched into the very structure of our brains, coded so deeply that the impulse for storytelling survives and even surges after the most devastating injuries. But our brains are also porous -- the stories they concoct shaped by cultural narratives about bodies and illness that permeate the minds of doctors and patients alike. In the history of medicine, some stories are heard, while others -- the narratives of women, of Black and brown people, of displaced people, of disempowered people -- are too often dismissed. In The Mind Electric, neurologist Pria Anand reveals -- through case study, history, fable, and memoir -- all that the medical establishment has overlooked: the complexity and wonder of brains in health and in extremis, and the vast grey area between sanity and insanity, doctor and patient, and illness and wellness, each separated from the next by the thin veneer of a different story. Moving from the Boston hospital where she treats her patients, to her childhood years in India, to Isla Providencia in the Caribbean and to the Republic of Guinea in West Africa, she demonstrates again and again the compelling paradox at the heart of neurology: that even the most peculiar symptoms can show us something universal about ourselves as humans.
