Preventing Dementia?: Life Course, Culture and Aging: Global Transformations
Editat de Annette Leibing, Silke Schicktanzen Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 iun 2023
The conceptualization of dementia has changed dramatically in recent years with the claim that, through early detection and by controlling several risk factors, a prevention of dementia is possible. This volume looks at how this new conceptualization ignores many of the factors which influence a dementia sufferers' prognosis.
