The advance of genetic sequencing techniques means that we may all soon be screened for potential abnormalities. Conditions like ADHD and Autism are on the increase, while other new categories like Long Covid can be driven by patients themselves. With scientific authority she opens new possibilities for how we might approach our health and our suffering.
From a neurologist and award-winning author of The Sleeping Beauties, a meticulous and compassionate exploration of how our culture of medical diagnosis can harm, rather than help, patients.
