At the age of 37, Jill Bolte Taylor, a neuroanatomist falls victim to a serious cerebrovascular accident. A haemorrhage is identified in her left hemisphere. On regaining consciousness in hospital, only her right hemisphere is functioning, the hemisphere where intuition, feelings and emotions are felt. She is then to discover all the subtleties and wonders of this right brain and will have mystic experiences which completely transform her life. After eight years of rehabilitation, during which she re-learns how to speak, read and move, she manages a complete recovery. Today her book represents a stunning testimony of her “inner” experience.
