Reviews

This is a tremendously practical approach to medicine in the aging. The book lays out the issues and possible considerations without becoming intensely physiology-oriented, making it helpful to many levels of reader. With its useful and practical approaches for caring for the aging, I highly recommend this book for clinicians on both sides of the ocean. Doody's Notes, April 2013
