Neurological Birdsong (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781735705569)

"The medical history is complex data,
waiting for clinical interpretation.
Even a poem is a type of data."

As a celebrated neurologist, Doctor Andrew Lees has been collecting and interpreting medical data for decades, and as an accomplished author and frequent tweeter, he has developed a keen ability to capture his thoughts succinctly. Now, in this book, he documents a career's worth of insights by reformulating his most profound tweets into poetic form. The aphorisms collected here touch on a host of related topics, from the right approach to diagnosis to the importance of a "soulful neurology" in the art of healing. They will interest everyone: the suffering patient, the young doctor or nurse, maybe even a health care bureaucrat. Neurological Birdsong is the beautiful expression of one doctor's wisdom.

A.J. Lees has written many books, including Brainspotting: Adventures in Neurology and Mentored by a Madman: The William Burroughs Experiment. He takes long walks in London and continues his tweeting career @AJLees.
