The Mind's Eye, by Oliver Sacks
by noteworthy at 7:22 pm EST, Jan 8, 2005

To what extent are we -- our experiences, our reactions -- shaped, predetermined, by our brains, and to what extent do we shape our own brains?

Does the mind run the brain or the brain the mind -- or, rather, to what extent does one run the other?

To what extent are we the authors, the creators, of our own experiences?

Wu Zi Mu is real. His name is Zoltan Torey.

But there is much more to this article than a blind man repairing the roof of his home at nighttime, all by himself.
