1994Library sticker to spine and FEP. Stamp to title page. Text clean, tight and bright. 59 pages. Ageing is not a disease, it is a normal phenomenon, and it is important that we recognize it as such. Problems encountered by the elderly only arise when other factors - physical, mental and/or social - interact with the effects of ageing. This book represents a compilation of important medical conditions encountered when caring for the elderly. Its avoidance of medical jargon and straightforward approach make it especially useful both to residential care-home staff as well as to medical students, GPs, house officers, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, nurses and social workers.
