More Links for Ackerman

I finally finished One Hundred Names for Love this weekend. If you're curious about some of things mentioned in the book, here are a couple links:
An excerpt from Paul's memoir about his stroke and aphasia

Ackerman mentions Jill Bolte Taylor's work and writing on her own stroke. If you haven't seen it, her presentation on TED is awesome:

Hey Deirdre, thanks for the links. I saw the TED talk with JBT over a year ago and loved it! It inspired me to read her book as well. I haven't finished 100 Names yet, but there's some common language; I've been thinking of it since I picked up the book. Thanks!
