Description:
In this remarkable book, Charles Pierce intertwines two dramatic stories -- the scientific race to discover the causes of Alzheimer's and the moving experiences of the Pierce family as they struggle with the disease. More than four million Americans develop Alzheimer's every year, just as Pierce's father did. Here he takes us deep into the country of this disease, from Dr. Alois Alzheimer's work in the early twentieth century to Watson and Crick's discovery of the double-helix structure of DNA, which opened up the field of research and led to discoveries of Alzheimer's genetic components.
