There is an average of one new case of dementia every four seconds.*

This book gives the basic information needed to understand what dementia is, how to recognise it, and, most essentially, how to deal with it, including details on:
- The different types of dementia
- Risk factors and investigation
- The various treatments and supports available
- Daily living, diet, exercise and attitude.
