Publisher's summary

An optimistic guide from an expert author and the world authority on Parkinson's disease.

Worldwide, there are more than 10 million people living with Parkinson's disease (PD). In the US alone, approximately one million Americans live with PD and approximately 60,000 more are diagnosed each year. Internationally renowned as both a neurologist and a leading researcher, Dr. Okun has been referred to as the voice of these patients and a world authority on Parkinson's disease. His positive and optimistic approach has helped countless people manage their symptoms and achieve happiness despite them.

This approach, detailed in this audiobook, Living with Parkinson's Disease, is a critical resource for Parkinson's disease patients and their families. Presented in a friendly and easy-to-understand way, this book addresses PD-related issues and symptoms along with emerging therapies. In each chapter, Dr. Okun offers patients the necessary tools to manage their disease and to ultimately find joy and fulfilment in their lives.

Living with Parkinson's Disease is masterfully narrated by Chuck Constant.

Produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.

Helpful!!

This book is very helpful for individuals and caregivers who are newly diagnosed with Parkinson's. The insight and information provide a good understanding of what is helpful to know and is written by leaders in the field of treating Parkinson's. This is a good place to start, it was recommended to me and I am recommending it to anyone who reads this review who needs to know more about Parkinson's either because you have it, or someone you love has it. If you're reading this review and considering this book, I'm sorry you find yourself here, but no you are not alone.
