Book Summary
Awakenings -- which inspired the major motion picture -- is the remarkable story
of a group of patients who contracted sleeping-sickness during the great
epidemic just after World War I. Frozen for decades in a trance-like state,
these men and women were given up as hopeless until 1969, when Dr. Oliver Sacks
gave them the then-new drug L-DOPA, which had an astonishing, explosive,
"awakening" effect. Dr. Sacks recounts the moving case histories of his
patients, their lives, and the extraordinary transformations which went with
their reintroduction to a changed world.
