“It's hard to understand that world [of Alzheimer’s] unless you are in the middle of it. But Dr. Pfeiffer . . . has taken us by the hand and given us a step-by-step guide of how to walk that path. He has equipped us with courage and armed us with information. I am grateful that this most useful tool is now available as other caregivers make their way through this puzzling disease.”—Gayle Sierens, from the Foreword
