Review

This book is successful in bringing together a range of experts from the field of demetia care to provide practitioners with some thought provoking and innovatory approaches to practice. -- Journal of Interprofessional Care 20040501 One of the book's strengths is the powerful series of case examples that bring important issues into clear, concrete focus and serve admirably to sensitize the reader to the plight of people who have dementia and the issues confronting carers. The book is a welcome addition to a growing literature that aims to enhance awareness of the plight of people with dementia, the duanting task of providing person-centred care, and the need to improve the quality of life not only of those who live with dementia but also those who provide care. -- Aging and Mental Health 20040501 A thought-provoking book, recommended for professional workers undertaking specialist practice or higher academic activity. -- Nursing Older People 20041101
