Phantom limbs

What are phantom limbs and what is a phantom pain?  What is a mirror box and what does it treat?  Who was Phineas Gage and what went through his head? (literally...) The frontal lobe, the little man, virtual reality and more.  Join me for another exciting chapter of passages in history.

The following chapter is based on Ran Levi's " Making History" chapter 31.  It was originally written by Ran Levi and translated by Ori Ben Porat.
