From New York Times bestselling author and neuroscientist Lisa Genova comes the definitive--and illuminating--novel about Alzheimer's disease. Now a major motion picture starring Oscar winner Julianne Moore! Look for Lisa Genova's latest novel Inside the O'Briens. Alice Howland is proud of the life she worked so hard to build. At fifty years old, she's a cognitive psychology professor at Harvard and a world-renowned expert in linguistics with a successful husband and three grown children. When she becomes increasingly disoriented and forgetful, a tragic diagnosis changes her life--and her relationship with her family and the world--forever. As she struggles to cope with Alzheimer's, she learns that her worth is comprised of far more than her ability to remember. At once beautiful and terrifying, Still Alice is a moving and vivid depiction of life with early-onset Alzheimer's disease that is as compelling as A Beautiful Mind and as unforgettable as Ordinary People.

SO good. But very eye opening, moving, depressing and scary. Can't wait to see the movie.

In the Face Reality
Being a woman in my mid 60's, I worry about this dreaded disease. My daughter-in-laws mother is in the beginning stages of Alzeheimer's and I can tell you - it is NOT pretty!

So Insightful!!
My mother passed away 4 years ago. She was diagnosed with Alzheimers about 7-8 years before she passed. Her sister had it as well. This book provided me with so much information that I called my sister & had to share the story with her. I am in the midst of buying her a copy from HPB so I can send to her. My sister was my mother's main caregiver so I know she will have a hard time reading this book, but at the same time, hopefully get clarity. Also about the disease being hereditary, I would choose to get tested!!

Excellent Purchace
I read this book, then wanted to own it. Through Alibris I easily found a copy. The book is in perfect condition (which is called good condition). It seriously looks like a brand new book; no marks, bends, tears, etc. I continue to order from Alibirs even though I complain about the shipping. .99 cents for a book and 3 bucks for shipping really is a good deal for a book you want. The story; Still Alice is one I strongly recommend. Anyone who has dealt with a person with memory issuess will treasure this book. I recommend it to all caregiverss and to children of aging parents.

Sad subject well written
Good read for anyone. Written by the subject with understanding yet funny and touching.
