EBOOK Migraine

&'A mine of treasures, a source of visions, a microcosm of human experience and suffering, the philosopher&'s stone: Migraine is a remarkable achievement&' Sunday Telegraph Migraine is an age-old - the first recorded instances date back over two thousand years - and often debilitating condition, affecting a &'substantial minority&' of the population across the globe. In this book, Oliver Sacks offers at once a medical account of its occurrence and management; an exploration of its physical, physiological, and psychological underpinnings and consequences; and a meditation on the nature and experience of health and illness.  &'It delves into the workings of the brain with brilliant complexity, and should be required reading for migraine sufferers or those with an intellectual bent&' Cosmopolitan &'Migraine is full of those wondrous insights that have made Oliver Sacks the most accessible and at the same time the most magisterial of doctors&' Anita Brookner, Spectator &'Written with Sacks&'s customary insight and grace, no book has helped me understand more about the mind-body connection&' Hilary Mantel, Mail on Sunday
