The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat: And Other Clinical Tales by Oliver Sacks
3.0
(3.5/5★)
Interesting stories involving people with neurological disorders. I enjoy Sacks' work, but I think he expected a bit too much in this one for his readers; the amount of neurological-y jargon can be a bit much to swallow when you're trying to invest yourself into one of his patient's accounts. In short, some chapters were very engaging and to the point, others...not so much. Still liked reading it as a whole.
