Book Description

March 20, 2009
Dementia, including Alzheimer s disease, characterised by mental deterioration and degeneration of the brain, is distressing for both sufferers and those who care for them, and Novel Ideas is dedicated to those affected. Containing around 100 letters from well-known people nominating their all-time favourite reads and explaining their choice, this book is designed both to stimulate an interest in reading novels and also to raise awareness of Alzheimer s disease. With a fitting foreword by Princess Alexandra, the aim of the book is to highlight the plight of sufferers and raise awareness of, and funds for, the valuable work carried out by the Alzheimer s Society.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Reading about other people's favourite books always makes an interesting and entertaining read and "Novel Ideas" fits the bill perfectly. --Terry Wogan OBE, TV and Radio Presenter/Writer

This book is a must for all 'book worms' - it is interesting to see what famous celebrities favourite books are. It is great to see that author Jeff Thorburn and Apex Publishing Ltd are raising money for the Alzheimer's Society. --Sir Ranulph Fiennes, Explorer

This book is dedicated to Evelyn Doughty, who has been living with vascular dementia for several years. Her son-in-law Jeff Thorburn, hopes the book will raise much needed funds for the Alzheimer s Society. This book is destined to achieve enduring appeal and I hope you will enjoy reading it. --Princess Alexandra
