You've likely read my review for other books addressing Dementia, of which there are many. This one is not bad, but does not address those thornier questions such as how the caregiver deals with his/her own grief, anger, remorse, guilt, etc. Few books do, but The 36 Hour Day is among the better ones in this attempt.

This book has all the answers you could ever want to know about Alzheimers. It's reader friendly and consise. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is a caregiver or a friend or family member of a loved one with Alzheimers.

This book has helped me and my family in so many ways. My mother-in-law was recently diagnosed with Alzheimer's. The information given by Dr. Atkins really helped us understand this horrible disease and also lessened our frustrations. If you are touched by Alzheimer's, you need this book. Teri Leyh
