I'm not a huge fan of stories that talk about medical issues because the words will get too complex. Thanks for creating this well-developed review.

This book doesn't sound like my type of read, I'm not a fan of historic books. But the psychoanalysis of a historic figure like Hitler and killers sounds intriguing. I love psychology books, so because of this might give it a chance.

This book appears like a "fountain of knowledge" indeed. I find much interest in medical truths. And to think it's based on real life events and renown personalities, makes it more captivating. Thanks for a wonderful review.

This is an informative book about historical figures with a little bit of a twist. The book focuses on the neurological side of prominent people and show the readers a glimpse of what's going on in their mind that shaped our history. This is a fascinating subject for both fans of historical and medical books. Thanks for the review.

This sounds like an interesting read. It would be interesting to learn of the detailed information on Parkinson's disease in not able people such as Muhammad Ali and Adolf Hitler.

This sounds like an interesting and enlightening non-fiction book that touches on mental illness and other chronic diseases of the nervous system. I love updating and learning new lights on such topics, and I will read the book to get more gems on the same. Congratulations on being the BOTD.

I honestly hate medical reads. But your review looks like this one is interesting, although I'd find it annoying too if I read those grammatical errors. Anyway, I'll put this in my shelf and see if I'll be interested. Thanks.
