* Oliver Sacks - Complete Works, 1970–2019 (19 books)

OLIVER W. SACKS (1933 – 2015) was a British neurologist, naturalist, historian of science, and writer who the New York Times called a "poet laureate of contemporary medicine", and "one of the great clinical writers of the 20th century".  He was renowned for detailed clinical descriptions of uncommon and sometimes startling neurologic phenomenology in people afflicted with a variety of problems affecting the nervous system.  His essays and books, full of captivating stories of people he had encountered, were written in a sympathetic voice and clear style that engaged a wide audience.

After a fellowship at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Sacks served as a staff neurologist at Beth Abraham Hospital's chronic-care facility in the Bronx (1966–2007), where he worked with a group of survivors of the 1920s sleeping sickness encephalitis lethargica, who had been unable to move on their own for decades.  Sacks recounted the brief cure that the patients experienced after receiving the drug l-dopa and the drug’s subsequent side effects in AWAKENINGS (1973), later adapted into a 1990 feature film with Robin Williams and Robert De Niro.

Sacks enumerated further experiences, both professional and personal, in a series of volumes written for a popular audience.  Having injured a leg in a mountaineering accident, he learned firsthand how a physician’s dismissal of a patient’s condition could hinder recuperation, a saga he related in A LEG TO STAND ON (1984).  Sacks took care to illuminate the existential as well as pathological conditions of his patients in works such as THE MAN WHO MISTOOK HIS WIFE FOR A HAT (1986).

Sacks continued to record the extraordinary circumstances of the patients he encountered and the equally remarkable adaptations that they developed.  In SEEING VOICES (1989), he explored the ways in which sign language not only provides the deaf with a means of communication but also serves as the foundation for a discrete culture.  In AN ANTHROPOLOGIST ON MARS (1995), he documented the lives of seven patients living with conditions ranging from autism to brain damage and described the unique ways in which they created functional lives in spite of their disabilities.

He described his journey to Micronesia to study a population with a high incidence of colour blindness and to Guam to study a mysterious form of paralysis in THE ISLAND OF THE COLORBLIND (1997).  He wrote of patients with conditions relating to music in MUSICOPHILIA: TALES OF MUSIC AND THE BRAIN (2007).  THE MIND’S EYE (2010) investigated the compensatory mechanisms employed by people with sensory disorders, including himself (in the wake of vision loss in one eye as a result of ocular melanoma).  HALLUCINATIONS (2012) inventoried conditions and circumstances—from epilepsy to drug use to sensory deprivation—that can cause hallucinations and chronicled the effects of illusory neurological phenomena on those who experienced them.

Among his autobiographical works were UNCLE TUNGSTEN: MEMORIES OF A CHEMICAL BOYHOOD (2001), OAXACA JOURNAL (2002), and ON THE MOVE (2015).  Two collections of essays, THE RIVER OF CONSCIOUSNESS (2017) and EVERYTHING IN ITS PLACE (2019), were published posthumously.
