Alzheimer’s Disease

Alzheimer’s Disease is the sixth leading cause of death in the U.S. according to the Alzheimer’s Association. This guidebook provides essential information on Alzheimer’s Disease, but also serves as a historical survey, by providing information on the controversies surrounding its causes, and first-person narratives by people coping with AD. Readers will learn from the words of patients, family members, or caregivers. The symptoms, causes, treatments, and potential cures are explained in detail. Alternative treatments are also covered. Each essay is carefully edited and presented with an introduction, so that they are accessible for student researchers and readers.
