Ministry with Persons with Mental Illness and Their Families, Second Edition
Those who are afflicted as well as those who are adversely affected by mental illness often live lives of "quiet desperation" without recourse to appropriate assistance. Most caregivers confronted with these illnesses in the work of ministry have had no training or accurate information about mental illnesses, so frequently they do nothing, resulting in further harm and damage. Others may operate out of a theological system that does not adequately account for the nature, severity, or treatment of these illnesses. In Ministry with Persons with Mental Illness and Their Families, Second Edition, psychiatrists and pastoral theologians come together in an interdisciplinary, collaborative effort to ensure accuracy of information concerning the medical dimensions of mental illness, interpret these illnesses from a faith perspective, and make suggestions relative to effective ministry. Readers will learn how science and a faith tradition can not only co-exist but work in tandem to alleviate the pain of the afflicted and affected.

ICT for assessment and rehabilitation in Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders
Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) are no longer objects gathering dust on a shelf; instead, they have become intrinsic in our everyday lives. They are now even taking on an indispensable role in many clinical and rehabilitation settings. In the past decade there has been a surge of interest in using ICT with elderly people, both with and without dementia, in various clinical and research settings. On the one hand, ICT can supplement the assessment of functional ability by more precisely evaluating the nature and extent of functional impairment; on the other hand, ICT can be used to support elderly people in their everyday activities, as well as to ameliorate symptoms and impro...
Neuroscientific Research for Management of Dementia
The articles in this eBook are divided into three main chapters. Chapter 1 focuses on the role of specific proteins in the pathological processes of neurodegeneration, specifically Alzheimer's disease. Chapter 2 describes novel candidates and risk factors for the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. Chapter 3 targets various therapeutic interventions from pharmacological targets to cognitive function. This eBook thus provides an overall overview of the latest research in understanding mechanisms leading to the development of Alzheimer's disease, diagnosis, and therapeutic interventions.
