El hombre que confundió a su mujer con un sombrero se convirtió inmediatamente en un clásico y consagró a Oliver Sacks como «uno de los grandes escritores clínicos del siglo» (The New York Times). En este libro, Oliver Sacks narra veinte historiales médicos de pacientes perdidos en el mundo extraño y aparentemente irremediable de las enfermedades neurológicas. Se trata de casos de individuos, aquejados por inauditas aberraciones de la percepción que han perdido la memoria, y con ella, la mayor parte de su pasado; que son incapaces de reconocer a sus familiares o los objetos cotidianos; que han sido descartados como retrasados mentales y que, sin embargo, poseen insólitos dones artísticos o científicos. Por extraños que parezcan estos casos, el doctor Sacks los relata con pasión humana y gran talento literario. Son estudios que nos permiten acceder al universo de los enfermos nerviosos y comprender su situación frente a las adversidades. Como gran médico, Oliver Sacks nunca pierde de vista el cometido final de la medicina: «el sujeto humano que sufre y lucha».

Celebrating Fifty Years of Picador Books If a man has lost a leg or an eye, he knows he has lost a leg or an eye; but if he has lost a self – himself – he cannot know it, because he is no longer there to know it. In this extraordinary book, Dr. Oliver Sacks recounts the stories of patients struggling to adapt to often bizarre worlds of neurological disorder. Here are people who can no longer recognize everyday objects or those they love; who are stricken with violent tics or shout involuntary obscenities, and yet are gifted with unusually acute artistic or mathematical talents. If sometimes beyond our surface comprehension, these brilliant tales illuminate what it means to be human. A provocative exploration of the mysteries of the human mind, The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat is a million-copy bestseller by the twentieth century's greatest neurologist. Part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the best of modern literature.

Oliver Sacks solía celebrar su cumpleaños vestido con una camiseta en la que aparecía el elemento de la tabla periódica que correspondía a los años que cumplía. Hacía esto movido por una pasión casi poética por la matemática y la neurología, pero también por una atracción rigurosamente científica hacia lo que, más allá de lo fisiológico, nos define como humanos y nos hace individuos irrepetibles, excepcionales, únicos. Su obra nos habla de la armonía extraña que se establece en el baile continuo del cerebro y la mente, de nuestra materia y lo inmaterial, del cuerpo grave y el humo fugitivo. Así, la fascinación, el asombro y la comprensión profunda de las historias clínicas nos muestran a Sacks adentrándose a pelo en los horizontes sin relieve de los pacientes, de las personas sin memoria, sin palabras, sin piel, a veces sin cuerpo siquiera para sí mismos... Se pierde él en los planos sin escala, en la búsqueda en mitad de la oscuridad sin nombres, a los que llama a voz en grito: «¿Estás ahí?» Y todos contestan: «Sí, estoy aquí, estoy perdido, tengo miedo y rabia. Estoy solo. Pero este soy yo.» Esther García Llovet Ilustración de la cubierta: Pablo Amargo

When Oliver Sacks was twelve years old, a perceptive schoolmaster wrote in his report: “Sacks will go far, if he does not go too far.” It is now abundantly clear that Sacks has never stopped going. From its opening pages on his youthful obsession with motorcycles and speed, On the Move is infused with his restless energy. As he recounts his experiences as a young neurologist in the early 1960s, first in California, where he struggled with drug addiction, and then in New York, where he discovered a long-forgotten illness in the back wards of a chronic hospital, we see how his engagement with patients comes to define his life. With unbridled honesty and humor, Sacks shows us that the same energy that drives his physical passions—weight lifting and swimming—also drives his cerebral passions. He writes about his love affairs, both romantic and intellectual; his guilt over leaving his family to come to America; his bond with his schizophrenic brother; and the writers and scientists—Thom Gunn, A. R. Luria, W. H. Auden, Gerald M. Edelman, Francis Crick—who influenced him. On the Move is the story of a brilliantly unconventional physician and writer—and of the man who has illuminated the many ways that the brain makes us human.

Oliver Sacks, the bestselling author of Awakenings and The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat, is most famous for his studies of the human mind: insightful and beautifully characterized portraits of those experiencing complex neurological conditions. However, he has another scientific passion: the fern . . . Since childhood Oliver has been fascinated by the ability of these primitive plants to survive and adapt in many climates. Oaxaca Journal is the enthralling account of his trip, alongside a group of fellow fern enthusiasts, to the beautiful province of Oaxaca, Mexico. Bringing together Oliver’s endless curiosity about natural history and the richness of human culture with his sharp eye for detail, this book is a captivating evocation of a place, its plants, its people, and its myriad wonders. ‘Light and fast-moving, unburdened by library research but filled with erudition’ – New Yorker
