"If I were caring for a relative with dementia, I would want this book; if I were working in an institution devoted to the care of dementia patients, I would be relieved to find this book. Despite the varied backgrounds of the authors and the diverse subjects covered, the chapters are remarkably uniform in quality, surely a sign of a competent and persistent editor. Perhaps books such as this one will eventually create more appealing career tracks and improved services to this population, one that will only grow larger in the coming years." -- Contemporary Psychology
