Description
A leading neurologist recounts the profound influence of William Burroughs on his medical career, tracing the discovery of a groundbreaking treatment for Parkinson's Disease to a remarkable self-experiment in the Amazonian rainforest.
Through his journey, Dr. Lees seeks to find answers for his patients and pleads for the return of imagination to medical research.
This thought-provoking account offers a unique perspective on the intersection of art and science, and the power of unconventional thinking in driving medical innovation.
