`.. one of the few `state of the art' books on the methods of caring for people with dementia currently available ... merits a wide multidisciplinary readership. ... Would recommend its inclusion in any departmental library of Psychology, Social Work, Nursing, or Medicine and Allied Professions, and expect it to be continuously on loan.' - British Journal of Social Work

`... a valuable publication which deserves a wide audience; it brings enthusiasm to and engenders optimism in an area of work that has until recently been viewed as rather `second class'.' - International Social Work

`An exciting review of strategies and methods to utilize in service to persons with dementia. Whether used professionally or personally, the techniques and information provided in it will be very helpful.' - Journal of Applied Rehabilitation Counselling

`Well worth a look ... chapters of particular interest to nurses include readily applicable models of care.' - Nursing Times

`An immediately accessible text for all those participating in the care of people with dementia.' - Journal of Advanced Nursing

`This challenging new book, well-written and courageously edited, takes the reader through a series of topical, instructive and thoughtful essays.' - - Dr Ivor Felstein, Therapy Weekly
