AnnotationThis second volume of contributions from health professionals and researchers covers the same general themes as in the first compilation in 1992 - with the addition of 'environment' and 'ethics' - but contains entirely new subjects. Key themes include: the subjective experience of dementia; the provision of care for family carers; differing cultural perspectives of dementia; and the importance of life history information in understanding a person's reaction to his or her illness for planning relevant, individualised, stage-specific care.
