An Anthropologist on Mars: Seven Paradoxical Tales

Descripción

Yellow paper-covered boards with yellow backstrip and silver lettering. Appears unread. Text is clean and white, no marks. Unclipped DJ shows minor edgewear, creasing at head of spine, light soil. "Neurological patients, Sacks wrote, are travellers to unimaginable lands. This book offers portraits of seven such travellers, including a surgeon consumed by the compulsive tics of Tourette's syndrome unless he is operating; an artist who loses all sense of color in a car accident, but finds a new sensibility and creative power in black and white; and an autistic professor who can not decipher the simplest social exchange between humans, but has built a career out of her intuitive understanding of animal behavior." (from the jacket). N° de ref. del artículo C80117
