"This is a much needed and inspirational addition to the literature of Alzheimer's disease... As I read this book I kept paper and pen on hand, writing notes to myself, excited and intellectually challenged by each page... I strongly recommend this powerful book not only to those professionals working with dementia clients but to all in elderly services. Ethics Committees will find ti invaluable as will nursing home administrators, directors of nursing, and all who care for people no longer able to care for themselves." -- Journal of Long-Term Care Administration
"Health professionals who deal with dementia, as well as family members who care for relatives who become disabled, will find this book thoughtful, engaging, and provocative." -- New England Journal of Medicine
"Peppered with personal anecdotes, this book gives readers unfamiliar with the disease a feel for the experience of both caregiver and patient. The book contains practical advice for health care professionals and family caregivers on how to handle common but difficult ethical dilemmas. It has something for everyone." -- Journal of the American Medical Association
"An intelligent and morally informed treatment of dementia in the aged." -- First Things
"Full of nourishing food for thought... The Moral Challenge of Alzheimer Disease presents the reader with a clear offering of concerns, ideas, and issues about the quality of life and quality of choice issues." -- American Journal of Alzheimer's Disease
"Stephen Post has produced an outstanding, potentially classic book. It is well written, clear, patiently argued, and broadly referenced. Readers can learn much about Alzheimer's disease from this book." -- Health Affairs
"[The Moral Challenge of Alzheimer Disease] is an integrated document of extraordinary value to any family that finds itself presented with those difficult and often painful personal challenges... [It] is a hallmark work for anyone who wishes to gain a richer understanding of dementia, its genetics, its epidemiology, and the issues of living with the disease." -- Peter M. Jucovy, Perspectives in Biology and Medicine
Stephen G. Post is professor at the Center for Biomedical Ethics, School of Medicine, Case Western Reserve University.
