My new read (not for fun) is 'The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat' A very moving account of case studies from Oliver Sacks, Clinical Professor of Neurology at The Albert Einstein College of Medicine, and Adjunct Professor of Neurology at The NYC School of Medicine.

A brilliant read! Gave me such insight into the working of my brain damaged head. And greater understanding of the complex issues faced not only by 'us', but by those who study brain disease and it's causes and effects.

A thumbs up for this guy :moonieman:

Michelle :what:

A fabulous book indeed. I also recommend his kingdom of the blind , Which is about a whole south sea island full of color blind people and how they cope with normal . I think there is something to take from it all, but it is so weird that I am not sure what it is!
