520    "An inspirational tale of personal struggle with and 
       triumph over Tourette syndrome, this is the story of Jeff 
       Matovic and the radical treatment he sought to cure 
       himself. After suffering from Tourette's for years--with 
       his tics and outbursts getting progressively worse and 
       with no results coming from drugs or physical or spiritual
       therapy--Jeff was able to convince his doctors and his 
       insurance company to try a risky deep brain stimulation 
       treatment, a surgery that involves the implantation of a 
       pacemaker for the brain into his skull. Penned by a 
       journalist who is also afflicted with Tourette's, this is 
       the incredible story of a friendship that blossomed under 
       their common experiences with this bizarre brain disorder.
       A complete discussion of the latest medical research of 
       and treatments for Tourette's, written in accessible and 
       easy-to-understand terminology, is also included"--
