Revised and Expanded With the same trademark compassion and erudition he brought to The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat Oliver Sacks explores the place music occupies in the brain and how it affects the human condition. In Musicophilia he shows us a variety of what he calls "musical misalignments." Among them: a man struck by lightning who suddenly desires to become a pianist at the age of forty-two an entire group of children with Williams syndrome who are hypermusical from birth people with "amusia " to whom a symphony sounds like the clattering of pots and pans and a man whose memory spans only seven seconds-for everything but music. Illuminating inspiring and utterly unforgettable Musicophilia is Oliver Sacks' latest masterpiece.
