I always thought that this observation came from looking at scans of
hydrocephalic brains where only a "rind" of brain material appears to
remain. Yet many hydrocephalics go on to succeed academically and in life
with apparent ease.
From the scans I saw the brain material available looked like 10% of that
available in a normal brain.
