When the Brain Creates Reality: Hallucinations from Myth to Neuroscience is a rigorous and deeply human exploration of how the brain constructs reality—and how that construction can fail. Written by a board-certified neurologist and neurosurgeon with over three decades of clinical and research experience, this book reframes hallucinations not as signs of madness, but as meaningful outcomes of normal perceptual mechanisms operating under altered constraints.
Blending modern neuroscience, clinical medicine, philosophy, cultural history, and emerging insights from artificial intelligence, the book guides readers from ancient myth to predictive coding, from neuroanatomy to ethics. It is written for physicians, nurses, medical students, and intellectually curious readers who seek clarity without oversimplification.
Both scientifically authoritative and philosophically compelling, this work fills a rare gap between medical textbooks and popular science—making it a valuable, distinctive addition to any serious science, medicine, or psychology collection.
