I would be very interested in reviewing this book, would prefer a paperback, but if not, pdf is fine

For information ( when I was young!!) I used to review books for a journal and also a publisher
( medical/scientific books) so would be happy to have a go at this one.
My husband asks lots of questions about his Alzheimer's and it would be good to know if this book answers them

[Sparkyb]

Yes please I would love to read this book. PDF copy is fine. My retired GP husband of 86 was diagnosed 8 yrs ago. I am a retired nurse and I certainly had no idea of the impact of this terrible disease. He is non verbal which makes it even harder. I am now his voice and when he was recently hospitalised with urine retention I asked if I could go in more frequently than the usual visiting hours but was told it was too busy at those non visiting hours. He has outbursts of shouting and each one has a different meaning which I understand.
This book is a great idea.
Thanks
