The book is based on current concepts in the management of this important disease and the caring strategies required in the four stages: diagnosis and assessment; maintenance therapy; management of complex clinical problems; and palliative care. Patients with this disease pose serious managment challenges for a wide range of health care professionals. It is important to take an integrated approach to the care of these patients - a fact this book highlights. Multi-disciplinary in approach, the book is essential reading for the clinician with responsibility for long-term care of the elderly with Parkinson's disease. Important clinical problems are addressed including cognitive losses, changes of mood, speech disorders, swallowing disorders, diet, urinary problems and quality of life
