if you want to learn more about mental disorders take abnormal psychology. a great class
here's a new thing
Did you know that a successfull head transplant was made once, on a monkey?
one monkey's head was removed, and reattached to another's (blood vessels, and other parts, although I'm not sure about the nerves.... it was weird, it was on some surgury show, and they actually showed the head hooked up to blood tubes and so on just moving around like it's alive

Yeah i know that story. The monkey actually lived, though he was paralyzed from the neck down. A doc also once attached a 2nd head to a dog. Both heads lived on for a while, though one of them wasnt capable of controlling the body.
The nerve issue has recently also been solved, a separate research has come up with a sort of glue that can be used to put severed nerves together. They got a mans hand back and working that way after it was cut off by a machine.
Soon, you can buy yourself the best body you could ever want  |
