"I'm flat on my back on a couch that's too short in a windowless
room in the bureau. I can't even sit at a computer, much less make
a keyboard work. My arms and legs are shaking uncontrollably.
Although I am only 53 years old, I have already been struggling
with Parkinson's disease for seven years. And right now the disease
is winning." So begins Joel Havemann's account of the insidious
disease that is Parkinson's. Into his own story, Havemann weaves
accessible explanations of how Parkinson's disrupts the brain's
circuitry, how symptoms are managed through drugs and surgery, and
how people cope with the disease's psychological challenges. The
paperback edition brings the discussion of treatment options and
research thoroughly up to date.
