And Still the Music Plays: Stories of People with Dementia Summary

Storytelling is the oldest and perhaps the best way of learning known to humans. Using 22 compelling stories, clinical psychologist Graham Stokes draws on his memories of people with dementia he has met to bring us all a greater understanding of the condition and of why some behave in the way they do. The stories are set at home, in care homes and hospitals. The central theme is that everyone with dementia is unique, with a distinctive personality and experiences, and it is only bythinking deeply about each person individually that we can respond to their unique needs and give the best possible care. The book is designed for professional and family carers, indeed all who want to know and understand more about this condition.
