Lewis, Thomas J.,

The end of Alzheimer's :the brain and beyond /Thomas J. Lewis and Clement L. Trempe. - Second edition. - 1 online resource (484 p.) :illustrations.

Description based upon print version of record.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Cover; Title page; Copyright page; Dedication; Contents; About the Authors; Foreword; By Jack C. de la Torre, MD, PhD; By Kimer S. McCully, MD; Preface; By Dr. Lewis; By Dr. Trempe; Chapter 1 -- Is it Alzheimer's Disease?; Neurodegenerative Diseases and Dementia; True Dementias; Alzheimer's Disease; Alzheimer's Versus Dementias; Multifactorial Alzheimer's; What if Alzheimer's Is Not Isolated to the Brain?; Differential Diagnosis; Beta-Amyloid and Alzheimer's; Diseases That Occur With Alzheimer's; Impact of Alzheimer's; Treatable Dementias and "Senior Moments"; Head Injury; Acute Infections.

The End of Alzheimer's: The Brain and Beyond, Second Edition is the first comprehensive overview on the molecular basis of Alzheimer's outside of the brain, merging the most recent findings within the field into a single book. It aims to educate the reader on the many overlooked aspects of Alzheimer's disease that occur outside the brain. This book uniquely provides step-by-step, peer-reviewed evidence that the current research model may be misguided and that a new and emerging model is more accurate. It carefully outlines the molecular research in Alzheimer's outside the brain and argues that a more thorough, whole-body diagnosis will provide better answers about its causes and lead to new treatments. It is beneficial to researchers who need to be apprised of the emerging science on the causes of Alzheimer's, and will hopefully redirect many into new avenues of cellular research and discovery.
