abstract: As a result of better care more and more children with Down syndrome not only live to be adults but also reach old age. It is then that they become vulnerable to dementia of the Alzheimer's type. Why does this happen? Are there differences in the development of Alzheimer's disease between the Down syndrome population and the general population? There is so much research into this field that it is helpful to have a book like this.
