Recenzii

“Surviving Dementia is clearly a book for caregivers of persons of dementia told from the perspective of a single caregiver in a singular situation. … This book provides a direct, poignant, and somber description of the feelings and thoughts of Carol Berman as she works through the process of identifying a disease, and then caregiving, and eventually coming to terms with dementia and loss of her loving husband of so many years.” (L. Stephen Miller, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 62 (11), March, 2017)
“The author is a psychiatrist whose husband died from dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Her book is a description of her personal experience of losing her husband to this disease, interspersed with patient vignettes. … This book is intended to be of use for patients, physicians, and families of persons with dementia. … This is a unique book. It is written from the perspective of a physician with first-hand knowledge of treating a loved one with dementia.” (Danielle L. Anderson, Doody's Book Reviews, January, 2017)
