As a medical novel I found it very insightful and informative. The pace was fast enough that it wasn't terribly boring but you could also form some attachment to each patient and their stories. At times it did feel more like a self-important type of book; written with solely the intention of proving that Dr Ropper is in fact an excellent neurologist. However I did learn quite a lot and enjoyed reading it.
