Migraine is an age-old – the first recorded instances date back over 2,000 years – and often debilitating condition, affecting a "substantial minority" of the population across the globe.
In this book, 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.
