Story4.5 out of 5 stars 366
Karl Deisseroth has spent his life pursuing truths about the human mind, both as a renowned clinical psychiatrist and as a researcher creating and developing the revolutionary field of optogenetics, which uses light to help decipher the brain’s workings. In Projections, he combines his knowledge of the brain’s inner circuitry with a deep empathy for his patients to examine what mental illness reveals about the human mind and the origin of human feelings - how the broken can illuminate the unbroken.

Story lacks a purpose and clarity

Listening to this book was like a tour to a psychiatric hospital by a constant sad low energy voice of a doctor through out the whole book. By this book you would enter few patience's rooms and get to know them a little and move on to another just as you are about to connect with them. You get to know a little of author's fatherhood life (the author would mention his son a little and leave him out and forgotten at the end) . And at the end sure you get to learn a little more about this and that but the purpose and out come of the tour and a reason for its invitation is very much unclear.

Interesting story and very well-done!

The story was so engaging and interesting to hear. The author did a wonderful job illustrating her life in a time of Iranian history which Islamic revolution is about to happen. I only wished that the book had a professional narrator who could spell names right and not as ridiculously as she did in this version. Really had a negative effect on the flow of story line.
