This superb book first appeared in 1970, but this edition has now been rewritten and expanded, taking in recent developments from modes of treatment to chaos theory.
To Sacks a headache is a mine of treasures, a source of visions, a microcosm of human experience and suffering, the philosopher's stone...
When reading his lucid, classic prose even a tyro, even a sufferer, may feel encouraged...Both the doctor and patient are in the realm of the marvellous...those wondrous insights which have made him the most accessible and at the same time the most magisterial of doctors.
