Mary Jordan’s book is essential reading for those who are living with long term and progressive Mild Cognitive Impairment - a condition that is neither a disease nor dementia but which causes similar functional difficulties. It is written clearly as a self-help guide, with evidence based theory and practical, achievable solutions to managing memory loss and reducing the risk of dementia. – Jackie Pool, Director of Memory Care, Sunrise Senior Living UKLet’s suppose you have some memory loss but have been told that you do not have dementia. Or you are just getting older. This is the book for you. It is packed with sensible, easy to understand and invaluable advice on how to keep physically and mentally fit as you age. – Dr Nori Graham, Vice President of the Alzheimer’s Society and Alzheimer’s Disease International
