This book offers an accessible and sympathetic introduction for relatives, carers and professionals looking after or training to work with people with dementia.

Drawing on the two `laws of dementia'', the author explains the causes of communication problems, mood disturbances and `deviant'' behaviours, with particular emphasis on how these are experienced by dementia sufferers themselves. Case examples demonstrate the typical symptoms and progression of dementia, and clear guidance is provided on how to support dementia sufferers at every stage and help them deal with the challenges posed by their condition.

Relatives and carers will find this book a source of essential information and encouragement to deal confidently with the difficulties posed by the condition both for people with dementia and those around them.
