Angel and Killer. An Engaging Journalistic Investigation of the Micro-particle in the Brain That Has Changed the Treatment of Depression, Anxiety, and Alzheimer's Disease

The new book by the bestselling author of "Fragments of Childhood Trauma" will tell about a revolutionary scientific discovery that will forever change the approach to treating Alzheimer's disease, depression, and other brain disorders. For a long time, the role... of microglia – a tiny brain cell – was considered secondary. But recent studies have proven that it maintains a fragile balance of physical and mental health, and under the influence of stress, various traumas, and viruses, it provokes brain damage – from memory problems and anxiety disorders to Alzheimer's disease and depression. However, under certain conditions, microglia can become an angel of salvation, healing the brain. In this book, renowned science journalist Donna Jackson Nakazawa not only explains how to "reset" microglia properly but also offers hope for recovery to millions of people.
