On the Move: A Life by Oliver Sacks
4.0
Book 11 of 40 for 2016
Oliver Sacks got on my radar like most people through the Robin Williams movie Awakenings he was an British American Neurologist who's work included some of the most fascinating cases. What I think made him popular though was his ability to write narrtives that a non-medical educated person would find interesting and accessible.
On the Move is his second memoir and tells of this early childhood and education to his move to the United States and his adventures in Neurology.
I enjoy the book and went through it quickly, I'm also hoping to get to Awakenings later this year.
