Description

Care-giving in dementia is a new speciality with its own rapidly growing body of knowledge.

This second volume of contributions from leading practitioners and researchers around the world is a handbook for all those involved in hands on caring, or in planning care, for persons with dementia.

Volume 2 of Care-Giving in Dementia provides a rich source of information on most recent thinking about individualised long-term care of both dementia sufferers and their families.

Key themes in Volume 2 are: the subjective experience of dementia the provision of care for family carers differing cultural perspectives of dementia the crucial importance of life-history information for understanding a person's reaction to their illness.

Chapters on the search for an ethical framework and the best environment within which to provide care are particularly timely.
