Friggin' Fascinating
One of several great books by Dr. Sacks. Utterly fascinating and touching and saddening at the same time. Highly recommend t
his
for anyone in medicine or anyone interested in the workings of the mind.
ABSOLUTLEY FABULOUS
If your interested in the mechanics of the hu
man
mind or just enjoy science--t
his
is the book for you.
DON'T MISS IT!
One of the most stolen books in our high school library and a very good read for all ages,t
his
is but one of several eclectic books by Oliver Sacks,part of
who
se work was the subject of the movie Awakenings.
Fascinating
Each mind described in t
his
book is completely enthralling. You're left wanting to hear more - wondering how Dr. Sacks could hold back from experiments and asking question after question. On the contrary, Dr. Sacks treats all these patients with a high degree of respect and patience. I'm still pondering some of the questions raised in the book - interesting enough, the one t
hat
I most remember is the question about our soul...

A mind is a wonderful thing to explore
I bought t
his
book for only one of its chapters as research for a screenplay, but ended up reading the
who
le thing. It is fascinating and will give you an appreciation for your own (hopefully functioning) brain. Each story is complete in itself, so it would make for good commuting or bedtime reading.
