This book details how "Alzheimer Disease" went from being an
obscure neurologic diagnosis to a household word. The words of
those responsible for this revolution are the heart of this book.
Dr. Robert Katzman and Dr. Katherine Bick, leaders in Alzheimer
research and policy making, interview the people responsible for
this awakening of public consciousness about Alzheimer
Disease from 1960 to 1980. They speak with the scientists, public
health officials, government regulators, and concerned relatives
and activists responsible for taking this neurodegenerative disease
out of the "back wards" through the halls of Congress, and on to
the front page. The reader will learn how the explosive increase in
research funding and public awareness came about, how physicians
and psychiatrists established diagnostic criteria, how drugs were
developed that offer hope for sufferers, and how the Alzheimer's
Association was born.
* Written in the words of those responsible for the widespread
recognition of this neurodegenerative disease
* The authors are recognised as leaders in Alzheimer research and
policy making
