Join the impeccable Manhattan neurologist Roger Pembroke on a wild, rollicking, funny and satirical ride through a world where artificial intelligence, robots and androids of the techno-obsessed West meet the all-too-human pleasures of the East.
Cuckolded by his business partner, Pembroke drops his practice and heads to California where he plunges into a quest to discover the exact nature of human consciousness-to find what the invisible thoughts in our heads are physically made of, if anything at all. On the way he encounters ancient burnt-out hippies and bikers, a debauched TV minister, an all-too-seductive lit professor, the head of a Mexican drug cartel, a ravishing raven-haired Bollywood actress, and a walking-talking, sexually performing robot.
An illuminating and adventurous tale of a man"s journey towards self-discovery, while at the same time an informed look at the neuro-scientifc rabbit hole of the human mind. The Neurologist and the Indian is a thought-provoking, sexy, scientific, philosophical, medical and mystical tour of philosophy"s mind-body problem, the holy grail of consciousness.
