Abstract

From the best-selling author of 'The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat', this book explores the ability of music to arouse, inspire and comfort us. Sacks explores this phenomenon through various unusual case studies, including that of a man struck by lightning who subsequently became obsessed with Chopin.
