Description

The Fragile Brain: The Strange, Hopeful Science of Dementia By Kathleen Eleanor Taylor Oxford University Press, 2016 Hardcover, 320 pages This book presents the latest research into neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and dementia, and their impact on individuals and families. Interweaving scientific ideas with personal accounts, it explores the complex relationship between the immune system and brain function. The author delves into the current understanding of these devastating conditions, shedding light on the enemy that causes them: the decline of brain health. As instances of dementia rise in ageing populations, this book offers a hopeful perspective on the future of research and treatment. By exploring the latest scientific insights, Taylor provides a comprehensive account of the field of neuroimmunology and its potential to transform our understanding of these life-changing conditions.
