Originally deemed a children's book, the story evolved into a study of neurological disorders.&nbsp;<br><br>One notable neurological disorder study was "Alice in Wonderland Syndrome". Typically occurring in children, the disorder alters the visual perception of body parts or external objects to be larger or smaller than they actually are. Thanks to Carroll's story, researchers were able to give a name to the disorder and help children better understand what was happening.</p><p><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:&quot;Open Sans&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">On a breezy afternoon, a girl named Alice remarked at a rather peculiar sight.

Far away from the life she was used to, Alice's adventures in the fantastical, and oh-so-strange, Wonderland is delightfully bizarre and tremendously entertaining.</strong></p><p>From the mind of a creative, kooky, genius, comes the unforgettable story of a young girl's journey through and odd land. Equal parts political commentary and societal satire, <i>Alice's Adventures in Wonderland </i>is an iconic coming of age story as seen through the expert lens of a child's imagination. Delicate, bizarre, and utterly nonsensical at times, <i>Alice's Adventures in Wonderland</i> remains as a literary treasure for all who dare to dream, wonder, think and explore.</p><p>With an eye-catching new covers and a new informative note about the author, this edition of <i>Alice in Wonderland</i> is both modern and readable</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h2>Our Modern Companion - <i>Hidden Valley Road</i> by Robert Kolker&nbsp;</h2><p>This week's companion is&nbsp;<i>Hidden Valley Road</i>,&nbsp;a biography by Robert Kolker about the Galvin family whom six of their twelve children were diagnosed with schizophrenia.

After World War II, Don's work with the Air Force brought them to Colorado, where their twelve children perfectly spanned the baby boom: the oldest born in 1945, the youngest in 1965. In those years, there was an established script for a family like the Galvins--aspiration, hard work, upward mobility, domestic harmony--and they worked hard to play their parts. But behind the scenes was a different story: psychological breakdown, sudden shocking violence, hidden abuse. By the mid-1970s, six of the ten Galvin boys, one after another, were diagnosed as schizophrenic. How could all this happen to one family?</p><p>What took place inside the house on Hidden Valley Road was so extraordinary that the Galvins became one of the first families to be studied by the National Institute of Mental Health. Their story offers a shadow history of the science of schizophrenia, from the era of institutionalization, lobotomy, and the schizophrenogenic mother to the search for genetic markers for the disease, always amid profound disagreements about the nature of the illness itself. And unbeknownst to the Galvins, samples of their DNA informed decades of genetic research that continues today, offering paths to treatment, prediction, and even eradication of the disease for future generations.</p><p>With clarity and compassion, bestselling and award-winning author Robert Kolker uncovers one family's unforgettable legacy of suffering, love, and hope.</p><div class="raw-html-embed">
