A fascinating & damning exposé on Oliver Sacks, author of “The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat”.
It turns out, by his own admission in his private journals, that much of his work was akin to “fairy tales” — based on “lies”, “falsifications”, & “fabrications”.

Oliver Sacks Put Himself Into His Case Studies. What Was the Cost?
The scientist was famous for linking healing with storytelling. Sometimes that meant reshaping patients’ reality.

This is a fairly old photo of some wild weather at Elliston, on the west coast of the Eyre Peninsula.
It was exhilarating to stand in the wind and watch the waves.
