In Lisa Genova's extraordinary <i>New York Times</i> bestselling novel, an accomplished professor diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease learns that her worth is comprised of more than her ability to remember. Now a major motion picture from Sony Pictures Classics starring Julianne Moore, Alec Baldwin, Kate Bosworth, and Kristen Stewart! Look for Lisa Genova's next novel <i>Inside the O'Briens</i>.<br><br>Alice Howland is proud of the life she worked so hard to build. At fifty years old, she's a cognitive psychology professor at Harvard and a world-renowned expert in linguistics with a successful husband and three grown children. When she becomes increasingly disoriented and forgetful, a tragic diagnosis changes her life - and her relationship with her family and the world - forever.<br><br>At once beautiful and terrifying, <i>Still Alice</i> is a moving and vivid depiction of life with early-onset Alzheimer's disease that is as compelling as <i>A Beautiful Mind </i>and as unforgettable as <i>Ordinary People</i>.
