Title: Sacks reveals the depth and mystery of the human psyche
Product review: A well-known neurologist, Sacks writes of his experiences dealing with different clinical case histories. Sacks reveals the depths of the human psyche, drawing a picture of each patient's case in clear language, and infuses one with a sense of wonder at the human condition. It's comprehensible for the layman as well as the specialist, although non-medically oriented readers may find some of his neurological references difficult to follow. A fascinating book that will take the reader, in the author's own words, on a "magic carpet ride", Sacks, in this book, is more of a story-teller than anything else. He focuses on the specific personality and uniqueness of each patient, rather than on actual clinical treatment and outcome of each one.
