[About the Book]
ーA Book That Will Transform the Way You Think About Dementia-
The author, a neurosurgeon, began actively treating dementia patients out of a deep regret for not being able to do more for his own mother when she suffered from the disease. Through his experience, he has demonstrated that dementia can improve with proper treatment and dedicated family care.
This book offers a clear and accessible explanation of what dementia is, the current realities of medical care surrounding it, how one can still live a peaceful life after diagnosis, and the latest preventive strategies. It also provides practical advice for caregivers on where to focus their attention when offering care.
