The brain is an incredibly complex structure with millions of neural connections. Just one small failure in any of its parts can completely destroy a person's personality…
All the heroes of this book are real patients of neuropsychologist Saul Martinez-Orta, who... shares their stories of battling the most terrifying diseases that destroy the brain: tumors, encephalitis, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and even anxiety disorders.

· What diseases can harm the brain?
· How to distinguish between a bad mood and serious cognitive impairments?
· When do anxiety and fears become a dangerous pathology?
