While growing older is inevitable, many of the troubles we associate with aging--including dementia, disability, and an increased dependence on others--are not.

Based on solid, up-to-date scientific research, the interventions explained in this book not only prevent progression toward dementia even in those who have already shown mild cognitive impairment, they also reduce disability and depression and keep people living independently longer than those who do not practice these methods.
