Oliver Sacks - "Leg as a foothold"

On the back of the title:

Oliver Sacks is a well-known British neurologist and psychiatrist, the author of a number of popular books translated into twenty languages, two of which - "The Man Who Took His Wife for a Hat" and "An Anthropologist on Mars" - have become international bestsellers.

"Leg as a point of support" is the most peculiar of Sachs's "clinical" works. His unusualness is to have a famous scientist in
as a result of the accident, he finds himself in the role of a patient.
However, the autobiographical work of Oliver Sacks is not a routine story of illness and recovery, but a living, fascinating and clever
the narrative of human relationships, the physical, psychological and existential aspects of disease and the struggle against it, and above all the
physiological component of the human personality.
