What is dementia? How should we organize dementia care? This
comprehensive book critically examines the main approaches to
understanding dementia (bio-medical, social-psychological and
socio-gerontological) and the main principles and ideologies of
care. The book: * provides clarity on the gap between the utopian
aspirations of care and the reality of care * opens up a series of
questions about knowledge and treatment of dementia * argues for a
transition from positions that place emphasis upon the individual
or particular care services to the social, cultural and economic
context Lively, informative and challenging, the book will be of
interest to students of nursing, sociology of health & illness,
social work and social gerontology. Anthea Innes teaches at the
Dementia Services Development Centre, University of Stirling
