bookshelves: adult, e-books, non-fiction

an important read if you want to delvle more into the world of neurological disorders from a doctor, but its con for me is that it must be dated by now, and I think some of these illneses and their diagnoses and treatments must have been through some updates by now since the time this book was written.

glad to have read it and it'll compel me to read more recent books in this area.

Quotes Radwa Liked

“If a man has lost a leg or an eye, he knows he has lost a leg or an eye; but if he has lost a self—himself—he cannot know it, because he is no longer there to know it.”
― Oliver Sacks, The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat and Other Clinical Tales
