Synopsis:

Presents a series of stories about men and women who, representing both medical and literary oddities, raise fundamental questions about the nature of reality

Review: ‘This book is for everybody who has felt from time to time that certain twinge of self-identity and sensed how easily, at any moment, one might lose it.’ (The Times)

‘Oliver Sacks has become the world’s best-known neurologist. His case studies of broken minds offer brilliant insight into the mysteries of consciousness.’ (The Guardian)

‘Populated by a cast as strange as that of the most fantastic fiction ... Dr Sacks shows the awesome powers of our mind and just how delicately balanced they have to be.' (The Sunday Times)
