Der Mann, Dessen Welt In Scherben Ging by Alexander R. Luria

The History of a Brain Wound

A clinical account of a soldier who suffered a severe wartime brain wound that obliterated his autobiographical memory, disrupted language and conceptual thinking, and left perception and action fragmented; the clinician combines careful neuropsychological testing with the patient’s poignant diary fragments to show how localized brain damage can dismantle personality, memory continuity, and the ability to form meaning, while also tracing limited pathways of rehabilitation and the implications for understanding higher mental functions.
