Description:

In this book, a neurologist specializing in geriatric neurology and dementia presents the latest research and most promising data thus far about a disease that affects an estimated 5 million Americans; a number that has more than doubled since 1980. The author has unique access to all ongoing research in this field, providing the readers with the most cutting-edge, up-to-date information on Alzheimer's and Alzheimer's prevention. One of the most exciting revelations in this book is that early onset Alzheimer's can be significantly slowed in its progress, giving the patient as many as 10 to l5 added years of quality life.
