In these essays, Oliver Sacks takes on evolution, botany, chemistry, medicine, neuroscience, and the arts, and calls upon his great scientific and creative heroes -- above all, Darwin, Freud, and William James. For Sacks, these thinkers were constant companions from an early age; the questions, they explored -- the meaning of evolution, the roots of creativity, and the nature of consciousness -- lie at the heart of science and of this book.
