This handbook provides up-to-date information about dementia, Alzheimer's disease (AD), and related disorders as they affect persons with mental disabilities. The book examines the biology and physiology of dementia; neurological and medical complications associated with dementia; the best practices to meet the needs of aging clients with intellectual disabilities and their families; policy issues raised by the growing number of aging individuals with intellectual disabilities; and case studies of affected individuals.
