This book is a series of vignettes pulled from Tony David’s decades of neuropsychiatric practice and research. I found the first few to be very compelling, insightful, and well-written, but by the end, found that the lack of thread connecting the stories together felt like a collection of beautifully written case reports.
I work with Prof David at UCL and I think I also enjoyed the rare insight into his life that peeks through in refreshing glimmers.
