Reviews

This book consists of three parts, which provide a valuable background on demographic structure and cognitive disability among elderly populations in both industrialized and developing countries. ... The book is well written and judiciously structured. ... I recommend this book, which features best practices, to designers and developers of system interfaces. (Thierry Edoh, Computing Reviews, December, 2016)
