Oliver Sacks is a world-renowned British neurologist, author of dozens of popular books, translated into many languages and became international bestsellers. "The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat" is a sensation book written by Oliver Sacks back in 1971 and has since endured dozens of reprints in English alone, not to mention numerous translations. These are stories of modern people trying to overcome serious and unusual mental disorders and struggling to survive in conditions unimaginable for healthy people, and of mystics of the past, obsessed with visions, which modern science diagnoses as a manifestation of severe neuroses. Sachs explains the strange, hard-to-understand relationship between the brain and consciousness in an accessible, lively, and entertaining way.
