Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Drawing from personal experiences, the author explores the often-silent struggle of health anxiety, or hypochondria, which is increasingly prevalent. By intertwining history, memoir, and literary criticism, she examines its effects from ancient times, including Hippocrates, to notable literary figures like Virginia Woolf and Marcel Proust, while also addressing contemporary issues such as Internet self-diagnosis. This comprehensive narrative sheds light on the profound impact of health anxiety on individuals' physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
