"Hallucinations" is not just about common hallucinations that most people associate with illnesses, such as schizophrenia, or with drug abuse. For example, Oliver Sacks also talks about feeling presences that some people tend to associate with mystical, supernatural or religious feelings/beliefs. Up to know, this proved to be the most interesting book from Oliver Sacks, very insighful into how the human brain works. It also raised the question what really is real, and what may be just an outcome of our brain's work...

While this was certainly an educating, somewhat even frightening read, at times this book felt like a description of the different types of hallucinations. I would've wished to read more about the underlying processes of this strange phenomenon.
