 Critical of Jesus, disturbing comparision!! May 7, 2008

Right off the author critizes the writers of the New Testament. What does faith have to do with this book??? He puts down the Bible as contradicting. His book is only his perspective!!! I really did not like it at all.

A must read if involved with Alzheimer's March 1, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Reading all the books I can find on this disease. This book was suggested as a must read at a Alzheimer's seminar. I am a caregiver trying to understand and care for my mother. This is a very informative book in the eyes of the person with Alzheimer's. Very eye opening for me. God Bless all who are dealing with this disease and those who love them and want the best for them. Thank you Mr. Taylor and may God Bless you and your family.
A Dementia Patient Comments February 10, 2008
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I have early dementia, fitting the criteria for Alzheimer's. Like the author, I was a psychotherapist in my 50s when my difficulties became such that I couldn't work. It's incredibly powerful to read his words, and see what I would have said if I were only so gifted. Most importantly, I want doctors to read this book, as most of them relate only to dementia as it looks in the end stage, and aren't familiar with what the early disease process looks like.

I thought it was an excellent source for where we are at in having our mother recently diagnosed with Alzheimer's. It wasn't alot of fluff, very
honest about what to expect now and in the future. This is one's man account of his memory loss and deficiencies acquainted with the disease. I reccommend it highly.
