Detailed item info
Synopsis
Dr. Snowdon's research on Alzheimer's brings to light not only advancements in the prevention of this disease, but also some of the inspiring stories of his subjects--the 678 Catholic Sisters he studied over a ten year period. His work is as much about the philosophy of aging as it is about the process.

Publisher's Note
Extraordinary media attention--including the cover of Time magazine, major features in The New York Times and USA Today, plus The Today Show, and NBC Nightly News--heralded the hardcover publication of this landmark book by one of the world's leading experts on Alzheimer's disease. Dr. David Snowdon has made headlines internationally with his research findings. But perhaps even more compelling is the human story of the hundreds of Catholic sisters, ranging in age from seventy-four to one hundred and six, who gave the Nun Study its name by agreeing to donate their brains upon death.
Taking us from the laboratory to the convent, AGING WITH GRACE is totally accessible and filled with intriguing portraits of these remarkable women. It also reveals the results of their extraordinary gift: newly discovered links between heredity, diet, lifestyle, early education, and Alzheimer's, plus practical steps we can all take to ensure a vibrant old age.
