Before something broken can be fixed, there is a need to know how it is supposed to work. Discover the facts about dementia by first reading what brain science research reveals about anatomy and physiology of a healthy human brain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe final chapter of this book is devoted to Alzheimer's disease as an example of where normal brain physiology and function can go wrong. There Dr. Reece translates the original scientific literature, which most people cannot read, into everyday language. Most everyone has heard of Alzheimer's disease, but few people know much about it. Because Dr. Reece teaches college students human physiology, she is asked about dementia s by friends, family and strangers. People want to know: What is Alzheimer's disease? How is Alzheimer's disease different from just getting old? Can I avoid Alzheimer's disease? These conversations encouraged her to write \"Inside the Closed World of the Brain.\" Her goal with this book is to provide people state-of-the-art information about how neurons and the brain's other 90% of cells work together and where brain function can go astray. Ultimately, understanding where things can go wrong will lead to prevention of all forms of the dementia of aging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou can find out more about Dr. Reece's work mentoring anatomy and physiology studenta at her website https: \/\/www.MedicalScienceNavigator.com\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Margaret Thompson Reece\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0996351302\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780996351300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Reece Biomedical Consulting LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/05\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 252\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.53d","brand":"Margaret Thompson Reece","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48449126203647,"sku":"9780996351300","price":69.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5889f18d-5383-4065-9765-b3c8346f4271.jpg?v=1777262062","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/inside-the-closed-world-of-margaret-thompson-reece-9780996351300","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
