this book was my first introduction to Oliver Sacks. a friend told me about the section in this book about Temple Grandin (she is autistic and actually named the book). he also tells of the surgeon with Tourette's syndrome that stops when he operates and this surgeon is also a piolot.the author flew with him and it is a pretty amusing passage.there are about 7 stories some more interesting than others.a very interesting read.
