For three years, Winnifred Noorlander lived with a concussion. In Hoofd Boven Water she describes what those years did to her, from the first dizzy spell to the moment she could fully function again.
She weaves her personal story together with scientific insight on stress and recovery. Not a self-help book with quick fixes, but an honest account that pulls you in while teaching you something about how your brain responds under pressure.
The book launches on 22 September 2026. Until then, you can already reserve your copy.
