Offers practical advice to relatives, friends and carers of people with Alzheimer's disease and explores the emotional and psychological dimensions of caring. Throughout the book there is an emphasis on the needs of the carer. There is a dilemma between relating to a person whose behaviour has altered beyond recognition and grieving the loss of someone who is still physically present. This conflict is confronted in a sensitive way.
