If you and your family face the specter of Alzheimer's disease, run - don't walk - to get Lisa Gwyther's help. She combines many years of experience with empathy and respect for the patient. That results in the most sensible, compassionate, and practical advice....She is my hero., Memory does matter. Adults across the life cycle are asking questions, many questions! The authors answer these questions for the educated public, family members who encounter memory loss in a loved one, and even adults who believe they are experiencing early memory loss. The answers are comprehensive and understandable, no small accomplishment given the plethora of new information available--information that at times is not only confusing but also conflicting., Highly recommended for consumer and aging health collections along with P. Murali Doraiswamy and Lisa P. Gwyther's The Alzheimer's Action Plan, The Alzheimer's Action Plan provides a clear and compelling message that there is something we can all do about Alzheimer's disease. The book presents accurate, up-to-date information and step-by-step recommendations that people with the disease, their families, and friends can use now to reduce the potentially devastating effects of Alzheimer's disease., Lisa Gwyther is a national treasure. She has been a pioneer in providing innovative care and education for Alzheimer's patients and their families for many years. Lisa's long experience helping families cope with the challenges of memory loss and Alzheimer's disease makes her uniquely qualified to co-author this book. Families experiencing the new world of memory loss and Alzheimer's couldn't ask for a better companion for the journey. Her warmth, compassion, and wisdom shine through, and will help light the way., Most of us will either get Alzheimer's or care for a loved one who has. This action plan can empower you to make a difference., Praise forThe Alzheimer's Action Plan: "Five million Americans have Alzheimer disease, and an even larger number with mild to moderate memory loss are at high risk of developing this illness. Murali Doraiswamy, a leading clinical researcher in Alzheimer disease, and Lisa Gwyther, a founder of the Alzheimer Association, have co-authored this timely, state-of-the-art book directed at patients with Alzheimer disease, their informants, and their primary care physicians....I fully predict that this exceptionally well-written, reader-friendly book will become the standard resource for patients with Alzheimer disease and their loved ones. Its up-to-date information, patient-centered approach, and focus on prevention and treatment directed at patients with incipient Alzheimer disease distinguish it fromThe 36 Hour Dayby Nancy Mace and Peter Rabins, which is directed at caregivers of patients with moderate to severe Alzheimer disease." --JAMA(Journal of the American Medical Association) "Check out "The Alzheimer's Action Plan," one of the best books about this illness to cross our desks.

I got it safely after it was shipped securely in a sturdy box labelled "Fragile" in block letters. The item is as described per the seller's words and clear photos. The previous owner kept the LP lovingly, in its original shrink-wrap and paper sleeve. The LP is of value to me as it plays well, sounding great, especially Randy Sparks' "Bright Moon, Bright Star". The seller is excellent! A⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!
