There is an emphasis on the prevention of Alzheimer's and Dementia through nutrition, physical activity and maintaining a positive attitude to life, as well as suggestions on how to improve the health and well-being of those already suffering from these conditions.

Review:
'This book is a compass; it orientates you and shows you a way forward... Reading this book, with its brisk and bright manner, you feel the warmth and compassion streaming off the page with thoughts that help us get a little closer to the old people needing help and care from those around them, to get through each day... it would benefit every household, every dwelling, to have a copy of this book available.'
