The Sunday Times Bestseller

As heard on Chris Evans' Virgin Radio

"You are amazing. I could talk to you (Rahul) all day." - Chris Evans

"This is a gripping new book." - The Times

World-leading neuroscientist and neurosurgeon Dr. Rahul Jandial draws from his years of experience with patients suffering from the most extreme cases of brain damage, disorders, and diseases to reveal what they can tell us about the science of the mind.

From a language teacher who must decide whether to lose her ability to speak Spanish or English after brain surgery, to a former TV executive who is now homeless and discovers that his life-changing despair is the result of a tumor, to a paralyzed teenager learning that deep breathing can mean the difference between life and death, these stories uncover the hidden workings of the brain.

With a combination of cutting-edge research and beautiful storytelling, "Life Lessons from a Neurosurgeon" is an essential resource for the best methods to improve your memory, manage stress and emotions, minimize pain, unlock your creativity, raise smart children, and reduce the risk of Alzheimer's. This is a deeply practical and readable book that takes you on an expedition through the anatomy of the most fascinating - and mysterious - of organs.

Rahul's new book "Life on a Knife's Edge" is now available.
