It includes detailed coverage of how to alleviate memory problems and discussion on issues such as ageism. For the student reader, there are descriptions and discussions of key topics as well as practical step-by-step guidance. The book includes a memory test as well as a comprehensive list of useful addresses and suggestions for further reading. This book will be an invaluable resource for the trained healthcare and medical professional and for the student reader.
