"This book masterfully achieves its stated goal of "one-stop-shopping" for clinicians interested in updating their knowledge about cognitive disorders. The editors have succeeded in combining clinically pragmatic didactics with state-of-the-art science in chapters that are well written, understandable, and just the right length."- Eugene H. Rubin, M.D., Ph.D., Professor of Psychiatry and Vice-Chair for Education, Clinical Investigator, Alzheimer's Disease Research Center, Washington University in St Louis -- School of Medicine, The text is an important resource for psychiatrists and other mental health professionals, whether they are reading it from cover to cover or using it as a reference., This is a marvelous new and comprehensive textbook covering the dementias and related cognitive disorders. Everything a clinician would want to know about these difficult disorders is contained in this excellent textbook., "The text is an important resource for psychiatrists and other mental health professionals, whether they are reading it from cover to cover or using it as a reference."- Joseph Tonkonogy, M.D., Ph.D., Psychiatric Services , February 2010, "This is a marvelous new and comprehensive textbook covering the dementias and related cognitive disorders. Everything a clinician would want to know about these difficult disorders is contained in this excellent textbook."- Doody Enterprises , July 24, 2009, "Busy practitioners will be pleasantly surprised at the timeliness and utility of the The American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Alzheimer Disease and Other Dementias . This multi-authored text anticipates the avalanche of new information on diagnosis and treatment of the dementias as well as the medical-legal, long-term care, and end-of-life issues that will increasingly emerge as the active life span of persons with dementia is extended. Pharmacologic, behavioral, and caregiver issues receive extensive coverage as do the vexing problems of traumatic brain injury and mild cognitive impairment. From the first descriptions of dementia in antiquity to preventive interventions currently beyond the horizon, Drs. Weiner and Lipton prepare readers to provide good care today and better care tomorrow. The comprehensive historical perspective gives the reader an informed perspective from which to view new developments in dementia science with both caution and optimism. The American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Alzheimer Disease and Other Dementias describes the state of the science as well as the clinical practices necessary to provide comprehensive care and a forward looking stance for dementia patients and their families. No textbook on a disease which is the focus of so immense a research effort can hope to be to up to date at the time of publication. However Drs. Weiner and Lipton offer far reaching coverage of the topic which prepares clinicians to make informed assessments of emerging developments in the area of dementia. As a result, this text will have an unusually long shelf life. The authors offer guidance through the maze of diagnostic procedures, medications, and psychosocial interventions. This is an essential resource for any health care professional hoping to improve the care of persons with dementia. Health care providers will benefit from this work. And so will their patients."- Gary J. Kennedy, M.D., Director, Division of Geriatric Psychiatry, Department of Psychiatry, Montefiore Medical Center, "As the proportion of older people in the population continues to increase, Alzheimer disease and related dementias will afflict a growing number of patients and their families. This authoritative text is an important reference for professionals involved in dementia research and care. Dr. Myron Weiner has done a superb job in editing a work that brings together internationally recognized experts who span a range of relevant topics, from epidemiology to neuroimaging. Up-to-date, clear, and comprehensive, The American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Alzheimer Disease and Other Dementias will become the essential volume for scientists, clinicians, and professional students."- Gary W. Small, M.D., Parlow-Solomon Professor on Aging, Professor of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences, Director, UCLA Center on Aging, Director, Memory and Aging Research Center, Jane and Terry Semel institute for Neuroscience & Human Behavior

Synopsis
The American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Alzheimer Disease and Other Dementias is an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of dementia for psychiatrists and other health care practitioners who deal with cognitively impaired adults in outpatient, inpatient, and long-term care settings. With content ranging from clinical guidance to basic research, it contains information on nearly every subject related to dementing conditions or illnesses--not only providing extensive coverage of clinical management issues but also enabling a deeper understanding of the causes of dementia. Designed to assist the practitioner faced with everyday dilemmas, from dosages of antipsychotic drugs to legal and ethical issues, this textbook describes in detail the most common conditions and diseases leading to dementia and covers pharmacologic, behavioral, and environmental treatments. It also considers a broader range of cognitive disorders and impairment in order to help practitioners recognize and treat primary brain diseases and systemic disorders affecting the brain before they reach the stage of dementia. Building on the editors' earlier work The Dementias: Diagnosis, Treatment, and Research, this new book expands on its scope, with nearly twice the number of contributors--all clinicians or researchers at the vanguard of the field. New to this edition are chapters on epidemiology, history of dementia, biomarkers for Alzheimer disease, care of the late-stage dementia patient, prevention of dementia, and chapters devoted to: * Vascular cognitive impairment, emphasizing the importance of early detection with development of appropriate treatments and risk factor control* Dementia with Lewy bodies and other synucleinopathies, describing differences in cognitive profile between synucleinopathies and Alzheimer disease* Frontotemporal dementias, including behavioral and language variants* Traumatic brain injury, distinguishing between proximal and distal effects and risk factors for dementia later in life An abundance of charts and illustrations, extensive references and additional readings, and chapter-end key points make this a practical volume for learning, while appendixes include easily administered instruments useful in daily practice for grading cognition, day-to-day function, neuropsychiatric symptoms, and quality of life. Whether used as a clinical guide or as a sourcebook on technical and scientific developments, The American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Alzheimer Disease and Other Dementias is an important reference for psychiatrists, neurologists, geriatricians, primary care physicians, and other health professionals who deal with cognitively impaired adults., The American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Alzheimer Disease and Other Dementias is an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of dementia for psychiatrists and other health care practitioners who deal with cognitively impaired adults in outpatient, inpatient, and long-term care settings.
