为什么值得读

  • 以神经学家视角讲述失认症等真实临床奇特案例
  • 充满人文关怀,将冰冷脑损伤转为温情人物故事
  • 浅显呈现左右脑不同损伤导致的奇特认知变化

在这部最为非凡的著作中,“二十世纪最伟大的临床医学作家之一”(The New York Times)讲述了迷失在神经系统疾病那离奇、看似无法逃脱的世界里的患者病历。Oliver Sacks 的 The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat 讲述了饱受奇异感知与智力障碍折磨的人们的故事:有的患者失去了记忆,也连带失去了大部分过去;有的无法再识别人群与常见物品;有的深受剧烈的抽搐与怪异面容困扰,或大声喊……

  • 哇,太神了。如果有人想了解更多这类情况,我推荐奥利弗·萨克斯(Oliver Sacks)写的《错把妻子当帽子》(The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat):http://www.amazon.com/Man-Who-Mistook-His-Wife/dp/0684853949。这是一本不可思议的故事集,全是从神经科医生的视角记录的这类案例。

  • 不光是语言——物体识别也会出问题——视觉失认症(visual aphasia)也是真实存在的。Oliver Sacks 的《错把妻子当帽子》(The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat)就是关于这个话题的绝佳好书。我自己就亲身经历过(视觉失认),是在严重脱水的时候(40度高温下连续吐了一周可不是闹着玩的),我当时根本没法认出物体……

    Not just language - object recognition too - visual aphasia is a thing too. The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat by Oliver Sacks is a great book on the topic. Anecdotally, I've had it (visual aphasia), in a severely dehydrated state (vomiting for a week in 40 degree heat is no joke), I couldn't identify objects…

  • ……亨利·马什(Henry Marsh)的《医生的抉择》(Admissions)——一位资深神经外科医生讲述几十年来他的职业发生了怎样的变化。书中关于什么才重要以及人们在真正危机中会作何反应的讨论非常深刻。还有 Oliver Sacks 的《错把妻子当帽子》(The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat)。这本书更像是一本趣味奇闻集,但在探讨大脑机制的人性化维度方面做得极其出色。

    …Admissions by Henry Marsh - An experienced neurosurgeon's account of how his job has changed over the decades. Really interesting discussion of what's important and how people react in a real crisis. The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat by Oliver Sacks. More of a collection of interesting curiousities but does an amazing job of humanising the discussion of brain.

  • 我推荐读读 Oliver Sacks 的《错把妻子当帽子》(The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat),我记得书里深入探讨过类似这种现象。左脑和右脑特定部位发生病变时,表现出来的差异非常耐人寻味。比如……

    I'd recommend the book "the man who mistook his wife for a hat" by Oliver Sacks which I seem to remember digs into some phenomonon like these. There are very interesting differences between certain lesions in the left side of the brain, and in the right side. For…

  • 文中提到的 Oliver Sacks 那本讲幻觉的书看着挺有意思。不过不得不说,我最喜欢的神经科学书籍之一必须是前面提到的 Oliver Sacks 医生写的《错把妻子当帽子》(The Man who Mistook his Wife for a Hat):http://www.amazon.co.uk/Man-Who-Mistook-His-Wife/dp/03305236... 对于任何对神经科学、心理学感兴趣,或者纯粹猎奇的人来说,这都……

    The book mentioned by Oliver Sacks on hallucinations looks interesting. I have to say that one of my favourite neuroscience books has to be, "The Man who Mistook his Wife for a Hat" by the aforementioned Dr. Oliver Sacks. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Man-Who-Mistook-His-Wife/dp/03305236... It's really a great read for anyone interested in neuroscience, psychology or just weird and…

  • 这让我想起一本引人入胜的书,Oliver Sacks 的《错把妻子当帽子》(The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat)。其中最有趣的一个故事是关于一个失去了直觉识别物体能力的人,他必须通过逻辑推理物体的各种特征才能搞清楚那是什么东西。这简直……

    This reminds of a fascinating book, The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat by Oliver Sacks. One of the most interesting stories is about a man who lost his ability to intuitively recognize things and needs to reason about their features to find out what they are. This is…
