Vale Oliver Sachs: Neurologist, writer, wonderful human being. People might recognize him from the film "Awakenings"

Mrs WPT & I first came across him many years ago when there was a film in the form of an opera on one of his writings: "The Man who mistook his wife for a hat". Moving.

Sad loss for the world. A sad loss for humanity.
