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 — weightlifting 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, Francis Crick — who influenced him. On the Move is the story of a brilliantly unconventional physician and writer — and of the man who illuminated the many ways that the brain makes us human.
Oliver Sacks, M.D. is a physician, a best-selling author, and a professor of neurology at the NYU School of Medicine. The New York Times has referred to him as “the poet laureate of medicine.”
He is best known for his collections of neurological case histories, including The Man who Mistook his Wife for a Hat, Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain and An Anthropologist on Mars. Awakenings, his book about a group of patients who had survived the great encephalitis lethargica epidemic of the early twentieth century, inspired the 1990 Academy Award-nominated feature film starring Robert De Niro and Robin Williams.
Dr. Sacks is a frequent contributor to the New Yorker and the New York Review of Books.
很向往的多彩人生。
评分结尾好一下就加颗星。确实像Dr. Sacks的老友评价过的那样,他的文字(至少这本书里)总觉得少点sympathy/humanity,直到结尾几页谈到爱情❤️才好些~ 准备看Awakenings的电影,以后有空再补上他写的其他书吧。
评分做很多事不难,做好很多事才难。人生目标。
评分坦率讲自己骑摩托车旅行,将自己求学,讲作为同性恋对性和爱的试探,吸毒经历,自己行医经历工作的热爱,坦诚真挚,a memoir of glorious, unflinching honesty
评分what a life!
书评: 奥利弗萨克斯是杰出的神经病学家, 他的第二个身份是闻名全球的畅销书作家。 书中讲述了他的成长经历和日常生活。 包括他喜欢骑摩托车的冒险行为,包括他同性恋的性取向。 也包括他对于左旋多巴这种药品的实验过程。 不过,这本书没有读出什么特别来, 感觉比较平淡。

评分看完这本书后,才感叹人生原来也可以这样过!一个人的人生没有所谓正确,也没有所谓成功,只要你自己觉得有意义,你的人生就是有意义的!即使他是同性恋,即使他吸过毒,丝毫不妨碍他成为一名杰出的神经学家,依然不能掩盖他对神经学科做出的巨大贡献,依然黯淡不了他所显现的...
评分机缘巧合之下读到了这本《说故事的人》,副标题为奥利弗•萨克斯医生的一生,作者正是奥利弗•萨克斯,顾名思义这是一本萨克斯医生的自传小说。坦白的说,在拿到这本书之前,我是不知道萨克斯医生的,虽然我的大学专业是医学专业,我参加工作以来也是致力于祖国公共...
