Update on Stroke of Insight Story

Comments (0)

Since comments are not very prominently displayed in this blog,
I wanted to call attention to Stephanie West Allen's comments about
a recent entry, featuring the video of a presentation by Jill Taylor,
a stroke victim and neuroanatomist.

Apparently the science in this presentation has come under quite a bit of scrutiny, as illustrated by Stephanie's blog posting, a collection of criticism for the idea's Taylor presents in her talk.

While I feel a responsibility to point out that a number of people
question whether Taylor knows what she's talking about, I was drawn
to the video not for Taylor's claims, nor the science, nor her spiritual explanation.

I simply found the presentation to be riveting storytelling.

By the way, I see that Oprah is doing a 4-part Webcast with Jill Taylor. Will be interesting to see if any of the criticisms are addressed.
