'I knew her as Dr. Anne Young, Chair of the Department of Neurology at Harvard Medical School. Now I know her journey from rebel-adolescent to wife/parent and determined physician/researcher. This is an honest memoir of love and loss transformed into a life of deep meaning and legacy. This memoir would be particularly appreciated by anyone already in, or considering a future in, medicine. Yet, as my own personal neurologist, I will always consider her as Dr. Anne Young: the Queen of Neurology - and now I know why I liked her so much not only as a physician, but as a human.'

'Dr. Anne Young is a true rock star of neurology and her amazing story is an inspiration for all seeking to overcome life's obstacles to reach the highest pinnacles of success. Disorderly Movements is a triumph of human spirit and pure brilliance!!' Rudolph E. Tanzi, New York Times Bestselling Author, Joseph P. and Rose F. Kennedy Professor of Neurology, Harvard University and Massachusetts General Hospital

'Neurologist Anne Buckingham Young has done us a great service in publishing her memoir … It offers a rare window into the development of neurology over the past 50 years, told through the eyes of a rebellious pioneer who, despite wrestling with dyslexia and bipolar disorder - as well as the pervasive shadow of sexism in science - became the first woman to chair a department at Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard's flagship teaching hospital. … Her memoir documents the unique thought processes and life experiences that gave rise to some of the discoveries that shaped our modern understanding of motion.' Justin Garson, Psychology Today
