First described in 1907 by Alois Alzheimer, a German neurologist,                 Alzheimer's disease is characterized by a degeneration and shrinkage                 of brain tissue. The symptoms include progressive memory loss,                 bizarre--even violent--behavior, difficulty in speaking and walking,                 incontinence, and confusion. Positive diagnosis is possible only                 upon examination of brain tissue, usually at autopsy. The disease                 affects not only the patient but also the caregiver, who for the                 first few years is usually a family member. Witnessing the mental                 deterioration of a loved one, as well as the constant vigilance                 required to see that the patient comes to no harm, can weigh heavily                 on the caregiver, who therefore needs support as well. With the                 general increase in longevity of the U.S. population, the incidence                 of Alzheimer's disease has risen to the point where it is now                 the fourth leading cause of death in this county. Research into                 causes, treatment and possible prevention has also increased,                 along with the allocation of funds to sustain it. This compilation,                 an update of TB 87-2, lists not only research texts but also titles                 designed to help caregivers and family members. Not intended to                 be a comprehensive bibliography, this guide is meant--as the name                 of the series implies--to put the reader "on target."
