Into The Mind: Episode 3: broken brains dvd
Ref: 1762
The final part of a 3 part BBC series presented by Dr Michael Mosley which explores the human mind through psychological experiments of the last century, and questions the ethics of how far some experimenters were prepared to go in their quest for knowledge.
Paul Broca's fascinating research in 1861 on Leborgne (known as 'Tan') is widely believed to be the start of neurosurgery as we know it today. Focusing on language, memory and split brain research this programme illustrates how years of painstaking experimentation on patients with damaged brains have offered the greatest insight into this organ, and have produced crucial mappings of the functions of the brain, which are used in neuroscience and surgery in the 21st century.
