Chapter 1 How does Alzheimer's begin and who gets it? -- Chapter 2 Forming memories -- Chapter 3 Masquerading as dementia -- Chapter 4 Alzheimer's --then and now -- Chapter 5 Unproven hypotheses on the cause of Alzheimer's -- Chapter 6 Other hypotheses on the cause of Alzheimer's disease -- Chapter 7 Alzheimer noise -- Chapter 8 Social contract and Alzheimer's -- Chapter 9 Genetics of Alzheimer's -- Chapter 10 Powering the brain -- Chapter 11 Pharmaceuticals and Alzheimer's -- Chapter 12 Alzheimer vascular risk factors -- Chapter 13 The Good, The Bad and The Ugly of Advanced Aging -- Chapter 14 A Personal Account of How a Scientific Hypothesis Blooms Into a Life of Its Own -- Chapter 15 Clinical tools to detect and predict individuals at risk of Alzheimer's -- Chapter 16 The turning point for Alzheimer's -- Chapter 17 How poor brain blood flow promotes Alzheimer's disease -- Chapter 18 Interventions that may increase cerebral blood flow -- Chapter 19 Great Expectations -- Chapter 20 A road to new thinking.

This compelling text provides an overview of the available technology for early detection and therapeutic management of vascular risk factors to Alzheimer's before severe cognitive impairment symptoms appear. Chapters bring the reader from the trackless clinical research that has characterized Alzheimer's progress for the last 20 years, to a nexus of new ideas and concepts that can change our outlook of this dementia. In-depth examinations of various hypotheses, preventive measures, current and prospective treatments are openly and clearly explored. The author discusses in depth his proposal of the vascular hypothesis of Alzheimer's disease which has become a mother-lode for basic and clinical studies and a key approach to the prevention of this dementia. Alzheimer's Turning Point offers professionals, students and those looking to learn more about this disorder a fresh clinical perspective of this devastating disease.
