Title: Informative and entertaining
Product review: Oliver Sacks does an amazing job of telling very interesting stories while maintaining an informative atmosphere for the readers. I found that the postscripts for many of the chapters took away from the feeling of the book as a whole. The postscripts are often heavily weighed down with medical information which can be hard to follow. The characters within the stories are very interesting, and it is nice to read how Sacks interacts with each character. Some chapters are much more captivating than others, "The Lost Mariner" and "Witty Ticcy Ray" to name a few. Although background information is a necessary part of understanding the characters, there are some chapters that have pages and pages of background information and then the story itself is not very long. Despite these minor flaws, Oliver Sacks delivers a wonderful collection of stories that are both informative and entertaining for any reader.
