Dr Elizabeth Forsythe's husband died from Alzheimer's disease in 1986, and here she describes her continuing quest to discover more about the origins of this strange and terrifying disease. The book is addressed to those who, with or without specialist knowledge, are involved in living near somebody with Alzheimer's and who inevitably have to carry a heavy burden. The author offers an approach which is based largely on the narratives given about the sufferers, both in the UK and North America, by those close to them, looking in detail at key moments in the sufferer's life.
