About this product

Product Information

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. Book jacket.

I've been looking for the Iron Giant art book for 5 years now and I finally found one with a reasonable price. The book arrived quicker than I expected and was packaged very well. I'm so appreciative of the care that went into making sure I got my book safe and sound. The book itself was just as described with minor damages to the sleve but thats to be expected. I truly cannot thank you enough, this will be a fine addition to my ever growing art book collection. 10/10 seller. ⭐👍
