When it can no longer be controlled, it ends up controlling you.
For its size, the brain really is beyond powerful, but like all things, too much of it and things may go wrong. This book tells the stories of people who experienced a distortion of their old realities: people who suddenly feel alien in their own bodies, who fail to recognize themselves in the mirror, who see things and become things, who are haunted by the past, who no longer remember what it is like. These stories and more unveil the extremities of what the human mind is really capable of.
