Published posthumously, Oliver Sacks’ last book takes a broad view of concepts of consciousness, starting with Darwin, working up to Freud, and finishing with modern understandings of the link between neurology and psychology. Sacks asks whether plants can be considered to have consciousness, whether earthworms have a mind and how time affects consciousness. While the essays are separate, they build up into a perfectly coherent whole.
