Phantoms In The Brain: Human Nature And The Architecture Of The Mind has detailed information the intricacies of the brain. The book explores unexplored theories about the brain, by using several examples and experiments conducted by co-author, Ramachandran. Such case histories illustrate the fundamental principles of how the human brain works.

The authors have brought a combination of clinical intuition and research knowledge to this book.
