The book 'El Alzheimer' by David Shenk, published by Espasa, offers a deep and moving vision of this degenerative disease. Through the description of Alzheimer's, formerly known as senile dementia, and the testimonies of patients and caregivers, the author intertwines science and humanity. The experiences of well-known figures such as Jonathan Swift, Williem de Kooning, and Ronald Reagan are explored, showing how Alzheimer's not only affects memory but also destroys personal identity. This work is a synthesis of the human drama caused by this disease.
David Shenk is an American writer, lecturer, and songwriter.
