Více o knize

Drawing from personal experiences, the author explores hypochondria, a condition that is increasingly prevalent yet often overlooked. By intertwining history, memoir, and literary criticism, she examines its manifestations from Hippocrates to modern figures like Virginia Woolf and Marcel Proust. The narrative delves into the consequences of health anxiety on overall well-being and critiques the dangers of self-diagnosis in the digital age, shedding light on an invisible struggle affecting many.
