COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Complete, but seems written at 5th-grade level submitted by doctorfang on July 26, 2015, 3:31pm This book covers all aspects of Alzheimer's Disease, from symptoms, diagnosis, physiology, treatments (or lack thereof), and caregiving. My only complaint is that the text seems simplified for a fifth-grade reading level. Good overviews of each area, but no in-depth study.
