5.0 out of 5 stars Deep, challenging, difficult, July 7, 2009
By 
Kieran Fox (Alam al-Mithal) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A difficult but enlightening read. As a previous reviewer said, an attempt to write an owner's manual to the brain: a guidebook on voluntary neuroplasticity and modifying your own internal wiring. Obviously not the final word but a worthy effort and far ahead of its time (in the West at least).

A pioneer in many fields. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars An owner's operating manual for the brain and central nervous system, April 27, 2006
The book explores parallels between computers and the human brain. It is Lilly's attempt to write an owner's operating manual on how to use the brain and central nervous system.

Lilly's list of scientific achievements requires a full page in Who's Who in America. He pioneered the original neuroscientific work in electrical brain stimulation, mapping out the pleasure and pain pathways in the brain. He conducted the first research on inter-species communication with dolphins and whales. He invented the isolation tank and conducted significant research on sensory deprivation. Lilly died in 2001.
