Description

Oliver Sacks's life has been marked by an insatiable energy and curiosity. From his youthful obsession with motorcycles to his work as a neurologist, he has pursued his passions with unbridled honesty and humour. As he recounts his experiences in California and New York, Sacks shares stories of unexpected encounters and travels that have shaped his life. He writes about his love affairs, his bond with his schizophrenic brother, and the writers and scientists who influenced him. Through it all, Sacks's enthusiasm for learning and engagement has driven him to explore new ideas and connections. This is a deeply personal and thought-provoking account of one man's journey to understand himself and others.
