«El hombre que confundió a su mujer con un sombrero» is Oliver Sacks's popular science essay on neurology, published by Editorial Anagrama in hardback (316 pages, in Spanish).
Oliver Sacks brings together twenty clinical case histories of patients with neurological conditions that alter perception, memory, or the recognition of everyday people and objects. Despite their disorders, some retain or develop surprising artistic or scientific gifts. The author presents them with a human gaze and a popularizing intent, bringing readers closer to the world of those who live outside conventional neurology.
Part of Anagrama's Argumentos collection, number 280. Translated by José Manuel Álvarez Flórez.
Recommended for readers interested in neurology, psychology, and clinical cases narrated from a literary and accessible perspective.
Oliver Wolf Sacks was a British neurologist, naturalist, historian of science, and writer.
