The book will provide the reader with a comprehensive review of Alzheimer's disease and other Dementias from both basic and clinical neuroscience perspectives in a single volume. There is no volume that encompasses the specific range of topics to be presented in this volume. Other volumes on the market are focused more narrowly on either basic sciences or behavioral and clinical sciences. The combination of basic molecular perspectives and cognitive neurosciences is novel.
The book opens with an introduction and overview to the major dementias and expores pathology, manifestations, and treatment and other necessary background on the diseases such as Alzheimer's, Pik's Disease, and Vascular Dementia. Section Two explores the state of the art research on specific diseas mechanism relaevant to dementia such as neuropathology and epidemiology and genetic risk factors. Seciton Three examines most recent research on major topics in cognitive and behavioral neuroscience as it relates to Dementia. The final section of the book explores the state of the art research in neuroimaging relevant to Dementia.from both basic and clinical neuroscience perspectives in a single volume.

Autoren-Porträt von Andrew E. Budson, Neil W. Kowall
Neil W. Kowall graduated with his MD from the University of British Columbia in 1979. He received postgraduate training in Internal Medicine at the Beth Israel Deaconess followed by a Neurology residency at Massachusetts General Hospital. After completion of his clinical training he completed a postdoctoral research fellowship and was appointed Assistant Professor of Neurology at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School . He moved to the Bedford VA Medical Center in 1992 where he is now Director of the New England Geriatrics Research Education and Clinical Center. He is a Professor of Neurology and Pathology at Boston University School of Medicine and directs the NIH-funded Boston University Alzheimer's Disease Center. His major research interests are human neuroanatomy and neuropathology and animal models of neurodegenerative disease. NIH, VA and private foundations support his research. He has published over 100 original peer-reviewed manuscripts. Dr. Kowall has received various awards, including the following: two Medical Research Council Studentship awards, the Russel Prize in Anatomy, the Hamber Prize in Medicine, the Bristol Medical Prize in Pharmacology, the Merck Scholarship in Medical Therapeutics, the Mead Prize in Pediatrics, the FIRST Award (R29) from National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, the Moore Award for Best Paper on Clinicopathological Correlation from the American Association of Neuropathologists, two Director's Special Quality Awards/Commendations from the Bedford VAMC, and the Zenith Award from the Alzheimer's Association.Andrew E. Budson (MD from Harvard Medical School) is Associate Professor of Neurology at Boston University's School of Medicine.
