Nine years of unexplained nightmares and hallucinations left Pat Long questioning his sanity. Finally the cause was uncovered: a rare tumour the size of a lemon growing in the right side of his brain. Two major surgeries have successfully controlled the cancer. Determined to come to terms with this new reality, Pat sets out to discover the truth about memory, dreams, imagination and consciousness. Here he works with scientists and clinicians whose cutting-edge research is providing new insights into the capabilities and the fragility of the brain, as well as drawing on philosophy, history, literature and his own remarkable experience.

''The NME mattered to all those generations who grew up with music at the centre of their universe.The NME never had a truer chronicler than Pat Long.'' Tony ParsonsSince it was founded in 1952, the New Musical Express has played a central part in the British love affair with pop music.Snotty, confrontational, enthusiastic, sarcastic: the NME landing on the doormat every Wednesday was the high point of any music fan’s week, whether they were listening to The Beatles, Bowie or Blur. The Sex Pistols sang about it, Nick Hornby claims he regrets not working for it and a whole host of household names – Tony Parsons and Julie Burchill, Nick Kent and Mick Farren, Steve Lamacq and Stuart Maconie – started their career writing for it.This authoritative history, written by former assistant editor, Pat Long, is an insider''s account of the high times and low lives of the world''s most famous, and most influential, music magazine. The fights, the bands, the brawls, the haircuts, the egos and much more. This is the definitive – and first – book about the infamous NME.
