From the bestselling author of On Gratitude and On the Move.

Beloved by readers for his neurological case histories and his fascination and familiarity with human behaviour at its most unexpected and unfamiliar, Everything in Its Place is a personal reflection of the myriad interests Oliver Sacks enjoyed in his lifetime - from his passion for ferns, swimming and cuttlefish, to his case histories exploring schizophrenia, dementia and Alzheimer's.

A celebration of Sacks himself as well as an astonishing glimpse into the mind of a man who has long been fascinated by the world around him and continues to fascinate his readers, Everything in Its Place, the second work of his to be published posthumously, is explored with Sacks's characteristic compassion and told with erudition in his enduringly luminous prose.

Oliver Sacks

Oliver Sacks was born in 1933 in London and was educated at Queen's College, Oxford. He completed his medical training at San Francisco's Mount Zion Hospital and at UCLA before moving to New York, where he soon encountered the patients whom he would write about in his book Awakenings.

Dr Sacks spent almost fifty years working as a neurologist and wrote many books, including The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat, Musicophilia, and Hallucinations. The New York Times referred to him as 'the poet laureate of medicine.' His memoir, On the Move, was published shortly before his death in August 2015.
