Review
Dr. Amarnick argues for change and for avoiding nursing homes, revealing how elders can receive tender care at home with a minimum of impact on caregivers. This doesn't just address ambulatory conditions which are some of the easier to cope with: it surveys the needs of those bedridden or in chronic pain as well as emotionally disturbed individuals. Case history examples pepper practical and philosophical discussions. -- Midwest Book Review
