    <body><![CDATA[this is an amazing glimpse into the world of plastic neurology. the idea that the brain is changeable we do not doubt but proof of it is quite extraordinary. the parts with animal experiments are hard to get through ie. sewing monkey's fingers together, especially when attempting sleep. but it is still worth reading and an opportunity to witness the atrocities of animal torture and the depths of human capacity through the will of the mind. 4 stars because of the animal issue. 5 stars without the endorsment of it. 4 stars remain.]]></body>
