These are tales of patients who  as the result of stroke  brain tumor  car crash  or neurological disease  begin thinking and behaving strangely  and with their loved ones support embark on the long journey to recovery  acceptance of disability and sometimes  death. There is Luke  the gang member who loses his speech but finds he can still sing his favorite blues number \"Trouble in Mind \" and Hm  who teaches the world about memory and becomes the most studied single case in medical history. You will meet Julian  who misplaces his internal map of the human body  and Melody  a singer who risks losing her song when she undergoes brain surgery to cure her epilepsy. Then there is Kim with a severe head injury  and Sophie who has just enough time to put her house in order before Alzheimers dementia steals her insight. For these and the many other patients whose stories are told in this book  the struggle to understand their disordered minds and disobedient bodies takes extraordinary courage  determination  and patience. For health professionals and researchers working with these patients  the ethical and emotional challenges can be as demanding as the intellectual and treatment decisions they make daily.  Trouble In Mind is written in an accessible narrative style that is both accurate and intimate. It will be enjoyed by readers -- whether students  researchers  or professionals in mental health and neuroscience  patients with neurological disorders and their families  or general readers -- who want to learn more about brain disorders and the doctors who care for those who suffer them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44983753441333,"sku":"ByrdShop_0199827001","price":51.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780199827008.jpg?v=1770809126","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/trouble-in-mind-stories-from-a-neuropsychologists-casebook","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
