Story5 out of 5 stars 1
Brain diseases are now the world's leading source of disability. The fastest growing of these is Parkinson's: the number of people with Parkinson's doubled to over six million over the last 25 years and is projected to double again by 2040. Harmful pesticides known to cause Parkinson's proliferate, many people remain undiagnosed and untreated, research funding stagnates, and the most effective treatment is now a half century old.

Amazing and thoughtful book. A must read for anyone with a connection to Parkinson's or who works in health and Parkinson's Disease.
...but as the book clearly points out this is an issue for everyone! We are all in danger of getting it and it is time to eradicate this disease. The authors clearly explain what we need to do. I was diagnosed at 37 and don't want anyone else to suffer. Now I'm promoting Exercise because of my success in helping manage symptoms with Gymnastics. My latest video 'The benefits of exercise' is super clear, not to mention my before and after video. Now I'm inspired to go further into advocacy.
I used the audible version. Could you include chapter 10 as a PDF as action points? Thankyou
