Handbook of Ageing Brain sounds like a good book to read. I am a long way from having an aged brain but seems to me I know of more and more people who are aging and caring for their physical bodies but failing when it comes to the brain. I wonder if anything useful is found in this volume.
"Brain structure and cognitive function in normal aging as well as in Alzheimer's disease is the focus of an excellent multi-authored volume, Handbook of the Aging Brain. An enormous amount of data is summarized leading to the overall conclusion that Alzheimer's disease is not simply a more serious or rapid extension of the normal aging process...[Handbook of the Aging Brain] is strongly recommended for those with considerable knowledge of neurobiology, Alzheimer's disease, aging, and brain disorders." -- Contemporary Psychology, 1999, Vol. 44, No. 5
