Inside the Closed World of the Brain, How brain cells connect, share and disengage--and why this holds the key to Alzheimer's disease
Book Description
Living a long life is highly desirable. Even though memory processing adjusts as the brain ages, certain people including those who live past 100 years retain their mental competence. Yet, most adults fear onset of dementia in general, and Alzheimer's disease in particular, more than physical disability. Many ask: What is Alzheimer's disease? Could I have it. Clear answers about Alzheimer's dementia and what is required to live a long, mentally healthy life requires first an understanding of how the brain's many types of cells connect, share and disengage.
