Still Alice

I was so impressed with this story. The author, Lisa Genova, who has a PhD in neuroscience from Harvard, used her knowledge to gain access to those who treat Alzheimer's disease. She wrote this novel with such clarity and compassion, using the voice of Alice Howland, a middle-aged professor suffering with the disease. The author also showed us the devastating effects of this illness on Alice's family. I highly recommend this remarkable book.
