Helpful Score: 2


The brain is an amazing organ indeed. Here we have 7 paroxical tales of neurological disorders and creativity. How do neurological disorders relate to creativity? How do patients compensate for loss of neurologic function? How can a surgeon operate despite the outbursts of Tourette's syndrome or how can an artist paint if he loses his ability to see color? I've liked all of Dr. Sacks' books and this one is one his best.

This is an OLD 1939 book, for those of you who like or collect vintage books. Bambi's Children is the by the same author of Bambi and I suppose the sequel to Bambi. There are some nice b&w illustrations in the book but the pages are tanning and the book does not have a dust cover.
