I did enjoy this book. But I felt there was a fair amount of superfluous information that could have been edited out and knocked about 100 pages off the 411 total. It was very interesting to read about the politics behind medical research and the incredible leaps that have been made in medicine. I, however, was expecting more a dive into patient HM's life an history. Whereas the story was really about the author's family.
