Story6
Oliver Sacks’ compassionate tales of people struggling to adapt to different neurological conditions have fundamentally changed the way we think of our own minds. In Musicophilia, he examines the powers of music through the individual experiences of patients, musicians and everyday people - those struck by affliction, by unusual talent and even, in one case, by lightning - to show not only that music occupies more areas of our brain than language does but also that it can torment, calm, organise and heal.

Story0
Fra il 1917 e il 1927, una grave epidemia di encefalite letargica (malattia del sonno) colpì quasi cinque milioni di persone. Una minuscola frazione dei malati sopravvisse, in una sorta di perpetuo torpore, fino al 1969, quando un nuovo farmaco, la L-dopa, permise di "risvegliarli". Oliver Sacks, fra il 1969 e il 1972, somministrò questo farmaco a più di duecento malati al Mount Carmel Hospital di New York. "Risvegli" racconta le storie di venti di loro.

Oliver Sacks siempre se ha sentido atraído por las islas, esos "experimentos de la naturaleza, lugares benditos y malditos por su singularidad geográfica, que albergan formas de vida únicas". En su última obra, esta fascinación le lleva más lejos que nunca, a las remotas islas del Pacífico, donde concilia su afición a explorar el mundo real con su pasión por investigar el mundo de la mente. En esta ocasión abandona transitoriamente a los individuos y con herramientas no sólo de neurólogo sino también de antropólogo...
