London England: Picador. Very Good. 2002. Reprint. Soft Cover. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall Octavo 0330390287 Paperback Paperback. Uncle Tungsten by Oliver Sacks. In this book the author evokes, with warmth and wit, his upbrining in wartime England. He tells of the large science-stepped family who fostered his early fascination with chemistry. There follows his years at boarding school where, though unhappy, he developed the intellectual curiosity that would shape his later life. And we hear of his return to London, an emotionally bereft ten-year-old who found solace in his passion for learning. This book radiates all the delight and wonder of a boy's adventures, and is an unforgettable portrait of an extraordinary young mind. Illustrated. 337 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences.
