Synopsis
How would you feel if you were convinced that your wife was an impostor?

How would you feel if you were convinced that your wife was an impostor? Or that your right arm belonged to your husband? Imagine not being able to recognise your best friend or name the animal that has a trunk and tusks. In Lies And Delusions, charismatic neurologist Dr V.S.Ramachandran takes us on a dramatic journey through the human brain, seeking answers by examining a range of bizarre neurological disorders. Ramachandran is always on the look out for the one vital clue that will illuminate the way the mind works, and uses apparatus that ranges from low-tech mirrors and an old wooden box to the latest in brain imaging technology. In the course of his search he uncovers compelling stories of ordinary people with extraordinary conditions, as well as creating a startling new picture of the human brain.
