Hallucinations with Oliver Sacks | World Science Festival

Oliver Sacks joined award-winning journalist John Hockenberry at the The World Science Festival in 2012 to discuss his book Hallucinations. The conversation canvassed the rich cultural history and contemporary science of the hallucinatory experience, and also touched on Sacks’ own early psychedelic forays that helped convince him to dedicate his life to neurology and to write about the myriad riddles of the human mind.
