Summary

Un libro que nos invita a maravillarnos ante la complejidad de la mente humana.

A través de casos clínicos y con la pandemia como telón de fondo, este libro explora el extraño mundo de las enfermedades neurológicas y juega con nuestra forma de experimentar el día a día para guiarnos por los maravillosos caminos de la mente.

Gracias a su dilatada experiencia como neuróloga y su enorme capacidad divulgadora, la doctora Isabel Güell se asoma al ámbito del recuerdo y la memoria, de las emociones, de los sentidos, del libre albedrio, del lenguaje o de la personalidad. Cuestiones complejas y enigmáticas que no solo demuestran la curiosidad, la erudición y la empatía de la autora, sino que, en su conjunto, se convierten en una espléndida indagación de la naturaleza humana.

El resultado es un libro vibrante y luminoso, escrito desde la pasión por los demás y con un gran talento literario que encaja en la tradición de autores como Oliver Sacks, donde la ciencia y la literatura caminan de la mano para convertirse en fuente de conocimiento y reflexión.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A book inviting us to marvel before the complexity of the human mind.

Through clinical cases, and with the pandemic as A backdrop, this book explores the strange world of neurological conditions and plays with our way of experiencing everyday life to guide us through the marvelous ways of the mind.
 
Due to her wide experience as neurologist and her immense communication skills, Dr. Isabel Güell peers into the fields of memory and recollection, of emotions, of the senses, of free will, of language, and of personality; complex and enigmatic issues that not only portray the author’s curiosity, erudition, and empathy, but all in all become a splendid inquiry into human nature.
 
The result is a vibrant and luminous book, written from a passion for others, and with great literary talent that falls within the tradition of authors such as Oliver Sacks, where science and narrative walk hand in hand to become a source of knowledge and reflection.
