This book provides a progressive approach to help you identify and manage the many forms of dementia. It clearly explains the diagnosis, investigations and management for: normal pressure hydrocephalus; mild cognitive impairment; Alzheimer's disease; vascular dementia; dementia with Lewy bodies; and fronto-temporal dementia.
