From: firemonkey on 22 Jul 2008 13:59 http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5741751130700571687 Oliver Sacks: Rage For Order from the Mind Traveller series 48mins Year: 1996 By 'Oliver Sacks', author of 'Awakenings' (also made into a film) and 'The man who mistook his wife for a hat'. This particular part looks at autism through the life of Jessie. In particular it looks at how people with autism can be interested in control and categorization on one hand, whilst being fascinated with the unpredictable and chaotic on the other. By extension Jessie has a lot to say about human beings in general just as her paintings and life inform us about autism.�
