*This title is the title Bright Air, Brilliant Fire, by nobel laureate Gerald M. Edelman, a book for the popular audience covering the pioneering neurological work he and others did in the 1980's and early 1990's. 
"Your brain develops depending on your individual history. 
What has gone on in your own brain and its consciousness over your lifetime is not repeatable,
ever - not with identical twins, not even with conjoined twins."
Edelman
