The Mind's Eye

Oliver Sacks
3.92/5 (11063 ratings)
Read Now Download Now
The bestselling author of The Man Who Mistook His Wife For a Hat describes how we experience the visual world.

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 recognise 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 also testament to the human power of creativity and adaptation.
