Paperback. Condición: Good. The Globe and Mail's Best Books of Summer 2025 In this collection of medical tales reminiscent of Oliver Sacks.the best of medical writing (Abraham Verghese, author of The Covenant of Water), a neurologist reckons with the stories we tell about our brains, and the stories our brains tell us. A girl believes she has been struck blind for stealing a kiss. A mother watches helplessly as each of her children is replaced by a changeling. A woman is haunted each month by the same four chords of a single song. In neurology, illness is inextricably linked with narrative, the clues to unraveling these mysteries hidden in both the details of a patient's story and the tells of their body. Stories are etched into the very structure of our brains, coded so deeply that the impulse for storytelling survives and even surges after the most devastating injuries. But our brains are also porous--the stories they concoct shaped by cultural narratives about bodies and illness that permeate the minds of doctors and patients alike. In the history of medicine, some stories are heard, while others--the narratives of women, of Black and brown people, of displaced people, of disempowered people--are too often dismissed. In The Mind Electric, neurologist Pria Anand reveals--through case study, history, fable, and memoir--all that the medical establishment has overlooked: the complexity and wonder of brains in health and in extremis, and the vast gray area between sanity and insanity, doctor and patient, and illness and wellness, each separated from the next by the thin veneer of a different story. Moving from the Boston hospital where she treats her patients, to her childhood years in India, to Isla Providencia in the Caribbean and to the Republic of Guinea in West Africa, she demonstrates again and again the compelling paradox at the heart of neurology: that even the most peculiar symptoms can show us something universal about ourselves as humans.…

Hardback. Condición: Very Good - See Description. First Edition Thus. 1898. First bound edition. 804pp. and many black and white illustrations from photographs and various artists. All edges gilt. The Strand Magazine was the first of the major popular illustrated sixpenny monthlies and ran from 1891 to 1950. It featured articles on almost every subject and the editors selected the best short fiction available throughout Europe and America, along with emerging British talent. The magazine is probably best known for introducing Sherlock Holmes to the public. The bound volumes in the publisher's original blue cloth binding are now sought after. This is the sixteenth bound volume and contains the issues from July to December 1898. It includes the second to seventh of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's "Round the Fire Stories" - including The Story of the Man with the Watches and The Story of the Lost Special. These are two puzzle stories in which the unnamed detective bears some resemblance to Sherlock Holmes. Other tales and articles in this volume include: an article on Lynton by J. Finnemore; underground London; making a life mask; triplets; Fishy Frolics - a story for children by Canning Williams; The Stolen Body - a short story by H.G. Wells; and The Larrikin of Diamond - a short story by E.W. Hornung. The book is bound in the publisher's original blue cloth covered bevelled boards with black titling and an illustration of The Strand on the front board and gold and black titling and designs on the spine. The case of the book is in very good condition with shelf wear and some soiling on the boards. The top corners are lightly bumped and there is heavier bumping to the bottom corners and spine ends with some damage to the cloth at the spine ends. The book has fairly recently been re-backed and re-cased in the original boards, and as a result the contents are now tight and secure with new grey endpapers. The pages are clean apart from a few scattered light marks and there is a red stain on the fore edge of parts of the text block of the first 170 or so pages that has seeped a little way into the fore margin of the pages. Pages 768 onwards have a water stain on the fore edge that is initially small and increases in size and noticeability towards the end of the book. There is light foxing to the last two pages of the index at the end of the book and heavier foxing to the half-title and title pages and the frontispiece. There is no inscription. PLEASE NOTE: This is a heavy book and extra postage may be required for delivery outside the UK. Sidney Paget, Warwick Goble, Gordon Browne and others (ilustrador).…
