Are you at high risk of dementia? Do you worry that you could become a sufferer? You do not simply have to hope for the best - while we do not have a cure or a definitive cause we do have a large amount of research data which gives strong pointers as to how we can change diet and lifestyle to reduce the risk. At the moment this is often ignored because it does not tally with current advice about what is a healthy lifestyle. We also have a great deal of empirical evidence on causes and connections which is not disseminated to the public because it has not passed the double blind trial test. This ground-breaking book looks at the wealth of research papers and brings to the fore the evidence we do have for the causes of dementia. It also sets out the weight of empirical evidence so that the reader can at least judge for him or herself what might turn out to be true. For those already afflicted there is sensible, not false, hope that something can at least be done to slow down or mitigate the consequences.

'Life is a journey,and so is end of life and we can prepare for it in the same way as we would prepare for any journey, making sure that all loose ends are tied up' Once a taboo subject,end of life is becoming a 'red-hot' topic as more people realize that the care and arrangements for their own end of life are in their own hands.In addition,new government initiatives in respect of carers and caring and of dementia care are bringing the subject to the fore.  This essential guide for carers,be they professional or friends and relations,provides information across a range of concerns surrounding end of life.The book tackles this difficult subject in a practical and caring way,showing how appropriate arrangements can be made to ensure the dying person's wishes about dying and post-death (funerals or celebrations of life and mourning ceremonies) are carried out.From the practical point of view,the book covers making a Will,making an Advance Directive,donating body tissue and organs and giving directions for ones own funeral or life celebration and/or memorial service.From an emotional view point the book discusses grief including anticipatory grief, ways of coping with grief,and the importance of grieving.
