Patient H.M.: A Story of Memory, Madness, and Family Secrets by Luke Dittrich
informative
reflective
slow-paced
4.25
This book may appeal to only a narrow audience: those interested in origins/development of lobotomies, the effects they have on memory, what memory is in general, & the treatment of mental health via neurosurgery. Reading made easy because of author’s personal story woven throughout. Highly recommended for those interested in these topics.
