Krátky popis
'A humane discourse on the fragility of our minds, of the bodies
that give rise to them, and of the world they create for us.' -
",Daily Telegraph",. Oliver Sacks' compassionate tales of people
struggling to adapt to different neurological conditions have
fundamentally changed the way we understand our own minds. In
",Musicophilia",, he examines the powers of music through the
individual experiences of patients, musicians and everyday people -
those struck by affliction, unusual talent and even, in one case,
by lightning - to show not only that music occupies more areas of
the brain than language does, but also that it can calm and
organize, torment and heal.Always wise and compellingly readable,
these stories alter our conception of who we are and how we
function, and show us an essential part of what it is to be human.
'Fascinating. Music, as Sacks explains, ",can pierce the heart
directly",. And this is the truth that he so brilliantly focuses
upon - that music saves, consoles and nourishes us' - ",Daily
Mail",. 'Irresistible, astonishing and moving' - ",Spectator",.
'Deeply warm and sympathetic' - ",Guardian",.
