Brainstorm by Suzanne O'Sullivan

Detective Stories from the World of Neurology

A consultant neurologist guides readers through real-life detective stories of seizures, blackouts, and other baffling episodes, revealing how similar symptoms can stem from epilepsy, fainting, sleep disorders, autoimmune disease, or functional neurological conditions. Combining clinical insight with empathy, it shows the uncertainty, stigma, and emotional toll of diagnosis while demystifying the brain’s quirks and the delicate boundary between mind and body. The result is a vivid portrait of modern neurology and the human stories at its core.
