Recenzii
"Alzheimer’s Disease and Other Dementias is the perfect practical guide for any clinician who works with cognitively impaired patients. Marc Agronin’s writing is accessible to a professional and lay audience, and his clinical pearls will offer new insights to even the most seasoned clinician. I recommend this volume to not only my students and colleagues, but I suspect that many families will find the information illuminating."
—Gary Small, MD, director of the division of geriatric psychiatry at the UCLA Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior and author of the New York Times bestseller The Memory Bible
"While there are many books on dementia, few are able to bring together the scientific and medical information with an appreciation for the human being behind the dementia. Marc Agronin not only pulls off this feat, but he does so in a readable, up-to-date, informative fashion. This is truly a practical guide."
—Peter V. Rabins, MD, MPH, professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine
"Dr. Agronin's new edition of Alzheimer's Disease and Other Dementias is a comprehensive yet concise guide to the assessment and treatment of various forms of dementia. It is written in clear and practical manner and includes many useful case studies and clinical tips. It should be an essential tool for all clinicians working with patients with dementia and their caregivers."
