- "Oliver Sacks is a perfect antidote to the anaesthetic of familiarity. His writing turns brains and minds transparent". ("Observer). In "The Mind's Eye", Oliver Sacks tells the stories of people who are able to navigate the world and communicate with others despite losing what many of us consider indispensable senses and abilities: the capacity to recognize faces, the sense of three-dimensional space, the ability to read, the sense of sight. For all of these people, the challenge is to adapt to a radically new way of being in the world - and "The Mind's Eye" is testament to the myriad ways that we, as humans, are capable of rising to this challenge. As such, it's testament, too, to the human power of creativity and adaptation. "Sacks shows in this book, that no matter how erudite, brilliant, fit or philosophical we may be, the darkness is never far away". ("Time Out"). ""The Mind's Eye" is about the possibility of recovery and the inexorable decline of the ageing individual. From this collision of incompatible truths, tragedy is made ...making this Sacks' most powerful book to date". ("Sunday Telegraph").
