《錯把太太當帽子的人》

奧利佛薩克斯不只是位醫師，也是個自然主義者，因而對疾病與對人同感興趣。面對腦部與神經的各種複雜難解之疾病，以及深陷疾病之中，感到茫然、甚至受苦的靈魂，薩克斯醫師以其觀察入微的眼、溫厚善解的心、生動流暢的筆，寫下了二十四個患者的故事。

　　其中有病人的心路歷程、有自己的省思體悟，更有自己和病人深刻而動人的互動，展現了薩克斯醫師深入探究的好奇心及設身處地的同理心。而薩克斯醫師種種有趣的思考及細膩的心思也在字裡行間自然流露，人文關懷不時躍然紙上，扣人心弦、引人入勝。

The bestselling author of Awakenings and Musicophilia

‘Oliver Sacks has become the world’s best-known neurologist. His case studies of broken minds offer brilliant insight into the mysteries of consciousness’ Guardian In his most extraordinary book, Oliver Sacks recounts the stories of patients lost in the bizarre, apparently inescapable world of neurological disorders. These are case studies of people who have lost their memories and with them the greater part of their pasts; who are no longer able to recognize people or common objects; whose limbs have become alien; who are afflicted and yet are gifted with uncanny artistic or mathematical talents. In Dr Sacks’s splendid and sympathetic telling, each tale is a unique and deeply human study of life struggling against incredible adversity. ‘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’ Sunday Times ‘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 ‘A gripping journey into the recesses of the human mind’ Daily Mail
