Streszczenie:
Sometimes close relatives of persons with neurological disorders say metaphorically: “he’s not the same person he used to be, as if someone has changed his soul” or “as if he has lost his soul”. Such impression appears when the person’s behavior and personality change, as if the patient has lost empathy and sensitivity to other people emotion, has lost ability to distinguish between good and evil. This condition can occur due to damage to the frontal lobes of the brain.Other neurological disorder with which the soul is associated is epilepsy. Epileptic seizures can manifest as transient changes in mental or emotional state and even moral judgment, so they affect the areas which are considered as attributes of the soul. The presentation will be illustrated by examples from clinical practice.
