Krátký popis
In An Anthropologist on Mars Oliver Sacks uses case studies to
illustrate the myriad ways in which neurological conditions can
affect our sense of self, our experience of the world, and how we
relate to those around us. Writing with his trademark blend of
scientific rigour and human compassion, he describes patients such
as the colour-blind painter or the surgeon with compulsive tics
that disappear in the operating theatre; patients for whom
disorientation and alienation – but also adaptation – are
inescapable facts of life.''An inexhaustible tourist at the farther
reaches of the mind, Sacks presents, in sparse, unsentimental
prose, the stories of seven of his patients. The result is as rich,
vivid and compelling as any collection of short fictional stories''
– Independent on Sunday Now part of the Picador Collection, a
series showcasing the very best of modern literature.
