Good grief, his diagnoses include Akhenaten, David Bowie, Salazar, Derrida, Rachel Carson, Boole, and that's just page one. Page two features Frankie Howerd, Kissinger, Gaudi, Georgia O' Keefe, Steinbeck, Jeremiah (from the Bible), Cézanne, Henry Ford, Shakespeare, Eisenstein, Anthony Burgess and Hawking.
