If you get a brain transplant

Say someone's brain is in bad condition, and they decided to get a brain transplant. After the operation, would the person forget their old memories? Would they 'remember' the donor's memories? Will their intelligence change?

[quote=magiclife]If they got a brain transplant, they would be exactly like the donor. With a different body of course, but they wouldn't even be able to gain back the memories of who they once were. You see... you are your brain, essentially. A body transplant would keep you the same much more than a brain transplant.[/quote]

So technically, the donor would be 'revived'?
But they won't literally be themselves, someone else will be them?
