The Ramachandran referred to in the article is a brilliant neurologist/neuroscientist (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vilayanur_Ramachandran). You should watch his TED talk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rl2LwnaUA-k), it's pretty amazing.

He wrote a book titled "Phantoms in the Brain." It is fantastic and I highly recommend it to anyone here who is curious about a little bit of psychology.

I was fortunate enough to hear him speak at my college graduation. We are both from the same town in India :-)
