AnnotationThe argument presented in this dissertation is that alternative perspectives - to those considered by the medical profession - have much to offer, in terms of developing a model on which to base service provision for dementia. A social psychological approach is discussed, which ensures that the rights of those with dementia are respected and their individuality acknowledged.
