For experienced caregivers and those new to the challenges, this book will be a profoundly useful guide to coping successfully.

"Bracing in its ability to be clear-eyed and reassuring at the same time. If I were coming fresh to the terrifying diagnosis of dementia in a loved one, this is the kind of voice I would want in my ear."--Barbara Peters Smith, Sarasota Herald Tribune, "It's hard to understand that world [of Alzheimer's] unless you are in the middle of it. But Dr. Pfeiffer . . . has taken us by the hand and given us a step-by-step guide of how to walk that path. He has equipped us with courage and armed us with information. I am grateful that this most useful tool is now available as other caregivers make their way through this puzzling disease."--Gayle Sierens, from the Foreword, " Caregiving in Alzheimer's and Other Dementias by Dr. Eric Pfeiffer is a superb guide to the range of issues that caregivers face on a daily basis, written by a master clinician and researcher. It is comprehensive yet concise, covering both the key aspects to various forms of dementia as well as the roles and needs of the caregiver. Most important, it is written with the humane voice of a caring physician who knows the disease inside out."--Marc Agronin, M.D., author of How We Age: A Doctor's Journey into the Heart of Growing Old, " Caregiving in Alzheimer's and Other Dementias by Dr. Eric Pfeiffer is a superb guide to the range of issues that caregivers face on a daily basis, written by a master clinician and researcher. It is comprehensive yet concise, with the humane voice of a caring physician who knows the disease inside out."--Marc Agronin, M.D., author of How We Age: A Doctor's Journey into the Heart of Growing Old, "With over five million people in the United States alone suffering from Alzheimer's disease it has become one of the greatest challenges of our times. Without a prevention or viable treatment the disease marches on, destroying lives and families. The greatest difficulties lie with the caregivers left to tend to loved ones who can't understand what is happening around them. Dr. Eric Pfeiffer well understands the position these caregivers find themselves in as the disease progresses. No better person could advise caregivers on how to deal with the ongoing trials this disease presents. As a well-respected physician with over 30 years of experience in the field of Alzheimer's, he offers practical, concrete suggestions that can make a difference not just to the Alzheimer's patient, but also to the caregivers who often don't even realize how badly they need assistance. This is a book that should be read by anyone caring for an Alzheimer's patient. It can and will make a difference in the quality of life for both the patients and their loved ones as they deal with the final goodbye." --Jeffree Wyn Itrich, Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study, UC San Diego, "Dr. Pfeiffer applies his vast experience working with Alzheimer's patients and their caregivers in providing a clinically and scientifically informed guide for caregivers that is both highly practical and readable."--Barnett S. Meyers, M.D., Weill Cornell Medical College, "This is a book that should be read by anyone caring for an Alzheimer's patient. It can and will make a difference in the quality of life for both the patients and their loved ones as they deal with the final goodbye."--Jeffree Wyn Itrich, Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study, UC San Diego, "A rich source of information by an acclaimed physician/researcher. The most complete reference for family caregivers of persons with dementia; destined to become the primary resource in the field."--Myron Weiner, M.D., University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center
