ABSTRACT Andrew Lees, Professor of Neurology at the National Hospital Queen Square (London, UK), has been recognized as the world’s most highly-cited researcher over the 200-year history of Parkinson’s Disease. Although he remains actively involved in the investigation of movement disorders, Prof. Lees embarked on a literary career that started in 2011 with the publication of a social history of his native Liverpool. His last work is Mentored by a Madman: The William Burroughs Experiment, which is reviewed here.

Dr James Parkinson’s initial description of this syndrome is covered along with all of the major developments in the understanding of the disease since then up to the modern era. Therapies are detailed, from early herbal remedies up to current treatment, including dopamine and levodopa, non-levodopa therapy, and surgery, and glimpses are given of potential future therapies. The conditions that are similar, the so-called “parkinsonian conditions,” are discussed as well. Synonyms: idiopathic Parkinson disease; Parkinson syndrome, Parkinson’s disease, Parkinson plus.
