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. \u003ci\u003eOn the Move\u003c\/i\u003e is the story of a brilliantly unconventional physician and writer, a man who has illuminated the many ways that the brain makes us human. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Vintage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/23\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804170932\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\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":"Default Title","offer_id":36643764043932,"sku":"9780804170932","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_02f82623-d052-427d-8314-a5d93d9b4e4b.jpg?v=1603857227","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/on-the-move-a-life-9780804170932","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
