Has anybody read this book, by Oliver Sacks? If so, i have a book report on it due Monday, and i have read some of it, but not all of it. I think i have a pretty good idea of what its all about, but i wanted to see if anybody who has read it remembers anything about that i missed/havn't gotten to. basically im looking for:

-key concepts
-how it relates to what you might learn in a high school psychology class
-how you might have benefited from reading it
-what you might have learned about your self as a result of reading it

Plus mad karma and vibes to anyone who responds with anything even remotely helpful. Obviously i shouldn't be doing this, but who hasn't procrastinated? Im not asking from somebody to post an entire book report on it, just answers to those things above. If you feel compelled to post a book report on it though, go for it.

tl;dr- Musicophilia by Oliver sacks. See dashes in the middle.

I knew that was coming. Again, it isnt as if im expecting somebody to do it for me because that would require them to write a 5 page paper. Im just asking for a few simple dash facts. Im going to have to do most of it my self, and im okay with that. i should.

See above. im not asking anybody to do my homework for me. Its the same as if i had just said "this book is awesome, what are your thoughts" and not mentioned school. just looking for the thoughts other people had on it.
