Migraine

''A mine of treasures, a source of visions, a microcosm of human experience and suffering, the philosopher''s stone: Migraine is a remarkable achievement'' - Sunday Telegraph. Migraine is an age-old - the first recorded instances date back over two thousand years - and often debilitating condition, affecting a ''substantial minority'' of the population across the globe. In Migraine , Oliver Sacks offers at once a medical account of its occurrence and management; an exploration of its physical, physiological, and psychological underpinnings and consequences; and a meditation on the nature and experience of health and illness.
