Reviews
“The audience is very broad, ranging from primary care clinicians and specialists to family members working through the best care for their patients and loved ones. … This well-referenced book addresses some of the most difficult issues in geriatric medicine today. It serves as a tremendous source of information and a starting point for those who may be struggling with how to approach their older patients and/or relatives.” (Vincent F. Carr, Doody’s Book Reviews, July, 2016)
