Inside the Mind of a Savant
Kim Peek possesses one of the most extraordinary memories ever recorded.
Until we can explain his abilities, we cannot pretend to understand
human cognition.
By Darold A. Treffert and Daniel D. Christensen
When J. Langdon Down first described savant syndrome in 1887, coining
its name and noting its association with astounding powers of memory, he
cited a patient who could recite Edward Gibbon's The Decline and Fall of
the Roman Empire verbatim. Since then, in almost all cases, savant memory
has been linked to a specific domain, such as music, art or mathematics.
But phenomenal memory is itself the skill in a 54-year-old man named Kim Peek.
His friends call him "Kim-puter."
He can, indeed, pull a fact from his mental library as fast as a search
engine can mine the Internet. He read Tom Clancy's The Hunt for Red October
in one hour and 25 minutes. Four months later, when asked, he gave the name
of the Russian radio operator in the book, referring to the page describing
the character and quoting several passages verbatim. Kim began memorizing
books at the age of 18 months, as they were read to him. He has learned 9,000
books by heart so far. He reads a page in eight to 10 seconds and places
the memorized book upside down on the shelf to signify that it is now on
his mental "hard drive."...

If you look down, they know you are lying.
Up, and you don't know the truth.
