With unbridled honesty and humor, Sacks writes about the passions that have driven his life--from motorcycles and weight lifting to neurology and poetry. He writes about his love affairs, both romantic and intellectual; his guilt over leaving his family to come to America; his bond with his schizophrenic brother; and the writers and scientists--W. H. Auden, Gerald M. Edelman, Francis Crick--who have influenced his work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Oliver Sacks\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0804170932\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804170932\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Vintage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/23\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.20w x 1.00d","brand":"Oliver Sacks","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44049807900927,"sku":"9780804170932","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ebf62d91-4a7c-4afc-a9a5-3edd28af1860.jpg?v=1685003567","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/on-the-move-oliver-sacks-9780804170932","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
