This is an amazing book, a classic from 1985 that's inspired about every Psych major since. It's a series of in-depth case studies of people with fantastic brains--told with a humane voice. These studies in "brains gone wrong" deliver amazing insight into how the normally functioning brain works. Sacks is a genius, and this is his best known work, though you might have also read Musicophilia. http://www.oliversacks.com/books...
