Wellcome Trust Prize Winner5
Searingly truthful & painful to read on all levels, for all readers but most especially if one has had a loved one go through & succumb to Alzheimers.
Ms. Gillies story is interwoven with neurophysiology and incisive deduction. She explores the mind, the self, the core of what we all are - and how this cruel disease robs the sufferer of every part of it. If you have cared for someone with this disease, you will relate to her account on many, many levels. Highly recommended.
