This groundbreaking book expertly brings together a wide range of effective dementia interventions to alleviate the debilitating symptoms associated with this condition, and for the first time, conducts a Cost-Benefit Analysis to assess whether the benefits outweigh the costs. Focusing on innovative approaches such as years of education, Medicare eligibility, hearing aids, and vision correction, Robert Brent also takes an innovative look at the urgent need to reduce elder abuse and initiate an international convention for human rights.

Cost-Benefit Analysis and Dementia offers a comprehensive and accessible approach to understanding dementia, defining it through a behavioral lens and highlighting how its symptoms can impact daily life activities. It delves into the causality of dementia interventions, addressing risk factors and expanding the existing list of interventions. Furthermore, the book provides a detailed three-step procedure for evaluating the monetary benefits of these interventions to determine their social worthiness.

Written in a comprehensive yet accessible style, this book serves as an invaluable resource for economists interested in conducting Cost-Benefit Analyses of dementia care. Healthcare professionals, policymakers, and non-professionals alike will find the various interventions discussed to reduce dementia symptoms enlightening and informative.
