In Pursuit of Memory: The Fight Against Alzheimer's. Joseph Jebelli. This book is a biography of one of history’s most confounding diseases – Alzheimer's – from its discovery more than 100 years ago to today’s race towards a cure. Reviewer comments: “It's a rarity to find a scientist who is apparently as passionate about writing as they are about science, and this is evident in this eloquently written book.” “This book is surprisingly upbeat about the chance of eradicating this scourge within the next few decades.” This book was a finalist for the 2017 Royal Society best science book.

Our library system has 10 copies. Available New and Used at Amazon, Kindle, and iBooks.
