What are we doing right and what are we doing wrong when it comes to dealing with Alzheimer’s Disease and other forms of dementia? And, what should we be doing in the future?

Our guests on this episode, Daniel George and Peter Whitehouse, have a lot to say about that. Dr. George is a medical anthropologist and associate Professor at Penn State. Dr. Whitehouse is a professor of neurology at Case Western Reserve University and a professor of medicine at the University of Toronto. Together, they are the co-authors of the new book, "American Dementia: Brain Health in an Unhealthy Society".
