Oliver sacks (1July 9-20, 93315) is a famous neurologist in London, England. According to his observation of patients, he wrote many bestsellers. He focused on following the traditional19th century "clinical anecdotes" and informal medical records in literary style. His favorite example is the mind of the memory master in Lulia's works. He studied medicine at Queen's College, Oxford University, and then worked in neurology at UCLA. He moved to new york in 1965, where he became a doctor and taught. He is a professor of clinical cranial nerves at Einstein Medical College, a visiting professor of cranial nerves at new york University Medical College, and a consultant cranial nerve expert at the Little Sisters of the Poor.

Sachs recorded only a small amount of clinical data in his case, mainly focusing on the patient's experience (one of which was himself). Many of these cases are incurable or near incurable, but patients will change their condition in different ways.

His most famous book, Awakening, was later adapted into a movie of the same name, telling his experience of trying the new drug levodopa on many patients with sleeping sickness and narcolepsy encephalitis in the 1960s. This is also the theme of the first episode of the British TV series Discovery.

His other book describes the various effects of Parkinson's disease and Durette's disease. The Man Who Mistakes His Hat for His Wife describes a man who can't see clearly (this case is the theme of an opera written by Michael nyman in 1987), and Anthropologist on Mars describes Temple Grandin, a professor of high-functioning autism. The works of saxophone have been translated into 2 1 languages, including Chinese.

On August 30th, 20 15, it was an unfortunate news that oliver sacks, a writer, doctor, professor, speaker and scientist, died of cancer in new york.
