Lawrence Weschler: "And How Are You, Dr. Sacks?: A Biographical Memoir of Oliver Sacks" | Talks at Google

Lawrence Weschler, New Yorker contributor and director emeritus of the New York Institute for the Humanities at NYU, discusses his new biographical memoir, "And How Are You, Dr. Sacks?" The book chronicles Weschler's four-decade friendship with renowned British neurologist Oliver Sacks, who is perhaps best known for his groundbreaking case-study collections "The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat" and "An Anthropologist on Mars," which transcend the realm of scientific analysis to provide profound insights into the human condition.
