It sounds really interesting. And as I didn't order a book for quite a while I think I head over to Amazon and get it - I hope it's good brain food :-) Thanks for the tip Murli.

Excellent reading. One of the cases he discusses is of an architect and artist who gets knocked on his head and loses his color vision. He is initially depressed, but in a year's time he has forgotten what it was like to see in color, and moreover, his visual acuity is dramatically improved. He then draws exclusively in black and white. Daniel, have you read the book, “The Man who mistook his wife for a hat” by medical scientist, Oliver Sacks? Excellent reading.
