I am only half way through, but the quote on the cover by Oliver Sacks says it all.

I was first attracted to this book after reading this Time article: [...] I always enjoyed Oliver Sacks' books, and was excited to encounter another book written about a medical mystery.

A great read.Six heroin addicts who did some "bad dope" (an underground lab's version of a Demerol analogue), and who strangely went into full-blown Parkinson's as a result of getting this batch of street-lab dope.
