“This book shines an essential spotlight on the need to end Parkinson’s, illuminating the key issues we are all facing. It is the role of everyone in the Parkinson’s community, patients, researchers, clinicians and advocates, to share this book and ensure that the authors’ voices are heard.”
—HELEN MATTHEWS, Deputy CEO, The Cure Parkinson’s Trust
“Just like music is about the people, Ending Parkinson’s Disease is about the scores of patients and families, like my mother-in-law, who battled each day against the many challenges of neurodegenerative diseases. We need to synchronize the worldwide orchestra of those affected in order to bring an to end to these diseases. This book will provide the roadmap.”
—CHRISTIAN MCBRIDE, multiple Grammy Award–winning bassist
“A provocative read. It will certainly encourage you to consider what more you can be doing in the fight against Parkinson’s Disease.”
—LESLIE CHAMBERS, MSPH, President and CEO of American Parkinson Disease Association, APDA
“Parkinson’s disease is not one disease but rather a collection of many with different contributing factors, and it satisfies many of the criteria of a pandemic. While the authors of Ending Parkinson’s Disease are hopeful about making patients’ lives better, their real passion is clearly centered around preventing people from ever having to face the disease in the first place. The book is a real eye-opener for people with Parkinson’s, caretakers, and healthcare professionals, and should be used by activists all over the world in their discussions with politicians, policy makers and budget holders.”
—SUSANNA LINDVALL, Vice President, European Parkinson’s Disease Association, EPDA
“As someone with a family history of Parkinson’s disease, I have been looking for a bold and actionable statement to help the millions affected. This book is it.”
