Written by a leading psychiatrist and two leading neurologists, this book is a step-by-step guide for medical personnel investigating cases of suspected dementia, whether of the Alzheimer's type or dementia associated with atrial fibrillation. In this rapidly developing field, the three divisions of tools, diagnosis and management turn this normally complex subject into one that can easily be navigated. Up-to-date references and an appendix of voluntary organisations and support services make this into a comprehensive and essential reference.
