Turning to Books to Grasp the Most Ungraspable Disease

Dr. Jauhar wites: "For a condition that is so ubiquitous and so feared, good books on dementia are surprisingly hard to find. Some of the best, I’ve come to learn, deal with particular symptoms, like memory loss, rather than the disease itself." See: Rx Jauhar.

This is a good article, but I disagree.  There are lots of good books about dementia.  See sections on this blog under the categories of dementia and Alzheimers and also the same sections on MedFlix.
