薩克斯以真實病歷為線索，探索大腦如何改變我們對世界的感受與自身的認識。《An Anthropologist on Mars》記錄七位不同病患的故事，從色盲畫家到妥瑞症醫師，呈現科學之外，面對陌生與困惑時，人的韌性與適應力。In An Anthropologist on Mars Oliver Sacks uses case studies to illustrate the myriad ways in which neurological conditions can affect our sense of self, our experience of the world, and how we relate to those around us.Writing with his trademark blend of scientific rigour and human compassion, he describes patients such as the colour-blind painter or the surgeon with compulsive tics that disappear in the operating theatre; patients for whom disorientation and alienation – but also adaptation – are inescapable facts of life.'An inexhaustible tourist at the farther reaches of the mind, Sacks presents, in sparse, unsentimental prose, the stories of seven of his patients. The result is as rich, vivid and compelling as any collection of short fictional stories' – Independent on SundayNow part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the very best of modern literature.

《Everything in Its Place》是神經科醫師奧利佛．薩克斯晚年的思想結晶。他透過醫療現場的故事，探討人類大腦與心靈的奧祕，從妥瑞氏症、失智到幻覺，也誠實面對憂鬱與精神疾病。此外，書中也流露他對自然、園藝與當代生活的關懷，展現出一位醫者的多面人生。From the bestselling author of On Gratitude, On the Move and The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat.In this spirited volume, neurologist Oliver Sacks examines the many passions of his own life – both as a doctor engaged with the central questions of human existence, and as a polymath conversant in all the sciences. Why do humans need gardens? How, and when, does a physician tell his patient she has Alzheimer’s? What is social media doing to our brains?In several of the compassionate case histories collected here, Sacks considers for the first time the enigmas of depression, psychosis and schizophrenia, and in others he returns to conditions that have long fascinated him: Tourette’s syndrome, ageing, dementia and hallucinations. In counterpoint to these elegant investigations of what makes us human, this volume also includes pieces that celebrate Sacks’s lo

薩克斯結合醫學與人文，講述音樂如何影響大腦與心靈。《Musicophilia》中有無法辨認旋律的人，也有記憶受損卻仍能演奏樂曲的患者。透過這些故事，他溫和地提醒我們，音樂不只是藝術，更深刻連結著人的自我與存在。With his trademark compassion and erudition, Dr Oliver Sacks examines the power of music through the individual experiences of patients, musicians, and everyday people.Among them: a surgeon who is struck by lightning and suddenly becomes obsessed with Chopin; people with ‘amusia’, to whom a symphony sounds like the clattering of pots and pans; and a man whose memory spans only seven seconds – for everything but music.Dr Sacks describes how music can animate people with Parkinson’s disease who cannot otherwise move, give words to stroke patients who cannot otherwise speak, and calm and organize people who are deeply disoriented by Alzheimer’s or schizophrenia.Musicophilia alters our conception of who we are and how we function, and shows us an essential part of what it is to be human.Now part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the very best of modern literature.
