Reviews

Wonderful ... The case studies are really helpful in helping us to understand all aspects of dementia, sex and wellbeing, and the points for reflection could also be used as part of an informative discussion or training session with staff. -- Dr Caroline Baker, Director of Dementia Care, Barchester Healthcare


Wonderful ... The case studies are really helpful in helping us to understand all aspects of dementia, sex and wellbeing, and the points for reflection could also be used as part of an informative discussion or training session with staff. -- Caroline Baker, Director of Dementia Care, Barchester Healthcare A very valuable and informative volume, bringing together the two complex issues of sex and dementia ... that cannot, and should not, be ignored. -- Peter Wells, Accredited sex and relationship therapist and supervisor, Anglican Priest and Honorary Canon Danuta must be applauded for her sensitive and insightful book - it is refreshing and will go a long way to lifting the lid on a subject that is often dismissed and taboo. Well done and thank you Danuta! A must read for everyone. -- Karen Borochowitz, DementiaSA (www.dementisa.org) and Stuward (www.stuward.com)
