This short guide is subtitled ‘‘300 tips for making life

easier’’. It is a very useful and practical approach

that briefly defines the disease and its development

and contains numerous practical points. It is an

excellent handbook for the lay person interested in

Alzheimer’s disease but is sufficiently insightful to be

of use to professionals as well. Recommended for

families of patients with Alzheimer’s disease and to

students and practitioners as well.
