Informative, practical and uplifting, this is a book for anyone with Parkinson’s and for those who care for and support them. It contains answers to almost any question you might ask about Parkinson’s, from symptoms and diagnosis to the latest treatments and therapies, as well as the most recent medical research into stem cells and gene therapy.

Drawing on her own experience of Parkinson’s as well as that of others, Ann Andrews offers accessible advice on how to cope with the impact of Parkinson’s on everything from employment, finance and relationships, to exercise, diet and self-care. The resulting combination of the practical and the personal sets this book apart from others on the same topic. Thoroughly researched and perceptively written, this is an empowering resource for anyone needing to adjust their life to Parkinson’s.

Ann Andrews has worked as a television and theatre producer, researcher, teacher and crisis counsellor. She was diagnosed with Parkinson's in her fifties. Positively Parkinson's is the book she would like to have read at that critical time. Ann lives in New Zealand.
