Alzheimer's disease and dementia : what everyone needs to know / Steven R. Sabat

Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia: What Everyone Needs to Know provides information not only about these conditions, but, crucially, about the many psychological and social strengths possessed by people diagnosed. Identifying and using those strengths can improve the quality of life of all concerned in non-pharmacological ways. This book thoroughly informs readers of the clinical history of these conditions, their causes and treatments, and methods of caring for and communicating effectively with those with AD.
