Dementia is the most significant health issue facing our aging
population. With no cure to date, there is an urgent need for the
development of interventions that can alleviate symptoms of
dementia and ensure optimal well-being for people with dementia and
their caregivers. There is accumulating evidence that music is a
highly effective, non-pharmacological treatment for various
symptoms of dementia at all stages of disease progression. In its
various forms, music (as a medium for formal therapy or an informal
activity) engages widespread brain regions, and in doing so, can
promote numerous benefits, including triggering memories, enhancing
relationships, affirming a sense of self, facilitating
communication, reducing agitation, and alleviating depression and
anxiety. This book outlines the current research and understanding
of the use of music for people with dementia, from internationally
renowned experts in music therapy, music psychology, and clinical
neuropsychology.
