Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Dementia is increasingly being recognised as a public health priority and poses one of the largest challenges we face as a society. At the same time, there is a growing awareness that the quest for a cure for Alzheimer's disease and other causes of dementia needs to be complemented by efforts to improve the lives of people with dementia. To gain a better understanding of dementia and of how to organize dementia care, there is a need to bring together insights from many different disciplines. Filling this knowledge gap, this book provides an integrated view on dementia resulting from extensive discussions between world experts from different fields, including medicine, social psychology, nursing, economics and literary studies. Working towards a development of integrative policies focused on social inclusion and quality of life, Dementia and Society reminds the reader that a better future for persons with dementia is a collective responsibility. Integrates multidisciplinary knowledge of dementia and essential societal topics to improve quality of life for persons with dementia. Discusses perspectives from a variety of disciplines including medicine, nursing, economics and literary studies, reminding the reader that a better future for persons with dementia is a collective responsibility.
