Summary:

Addresses the question why women differ from men in terms of their risk factors and how Alzheimer's disease can be prevented at the molecular level. This book reviews the epidemiology of Alzheimer's disease describing the differences in men's and women's brain anatomy and biochemistry that may account for why women are more likely to develop Alzheimer's disease. The authors offer actions that could help to prevent or slow the progression of Alzheimer's disease in addition to discussing the most recent pharmacological treatments
