What is it like to regain consciousness after 19 years in a coma?

Despite tremendous advances in scientific knowledge, newspaper stories and TV documentaries highlight many fascinating cases like those above, where everything we think we know about the workings of the human body is thrown into doubt. In 'Mysteries of the Human Body', Gordon Thomas draws on cases past and present to provide answer to these and many other extraordinary medical riddles."
