Focussing on the progressive nature of dementia and the issues that can arise as a result, it gives practical advice that can help to ensure the best possible quality of life both for the person with dementia and the people around them.

    Recensioner i media

    I am delighted the authors have updated what was already a well respected book and made it totally relevant to today. Whilst there are many books by professionals working alongside those of us with dementia few are as comprehensive and sensitive in both their content and tone. The authors really "get inside" the complexities of dementia by informing and offering practical guidance which if taken and applied can help people affected by dementia live as well as possible with this immensely challenging condition. I am delighted that the authors devote much attention to the need for support for both the diagnosed person and those closest to us because I know that dementia can be a lonely and foggy experience, this book shows this need not be the case, as reading it will help steer us from the mists of frustration to the sunshine of hope. This book is an essential read and guiding companion for all who care for those who have dementia, be they family or professional carer and should be on all suggested book lists for students considering working with those of us with dementia. Consequently I fully recommend it.
