Starting on May 10, 2009, The Alzheimer's Project is a new 4-part HBO series that looks at the effects of Alzheimer's on individuals diagnosed with the disease, their caregivers, and their children and grandchildren. It also provides a comprehensive update on our current understanding of the disease, research into its causes, and available and future treatments. Visit The Alzheimer's Project website at http://www.hbo.com/alzheimers for more information.

You can also learn more about Alzheimer's disease, effective Alzheimer's caregiving practices, meaningful activities, first-person perspectives on what it's like to have Alzheimer's or other related dementias, and much more from these titles from HPP, a premier publisher in the field of dementia:
