Review :
This book constitutes a well-rounded review of the aging brain including basic neuroscience, normal aging, and how it relates to diseases of aging with ways to assess it. In addition, it tackles the ethical implications of aging now and in the future. The book does a good job of covering the different diseases of aging and groups them according to pathology and modes of treatment. Unique features include concise summaries of the associated basic science and good quality imaging. This is a valuable book for any person wishing to learn more about the aging brain and ways to prevent and treat diseases of the aging brain. It raises awareness of the policy issues that are currently overlooked and emphasizes the importance of understanding the aging brain better. - JANE KHALIFE, MD, Thomas Jefferson University
