And still the music plays : stories of people with dementia
Stokes, Graham2013
Books
Storytelling is the oldest and perhaps the best way of learning known to humans. Using 22 compelling stories, clinical psychologist Graham Stokes draws on his memories of people with dementia he has met to bring us all a greater understanding of the condition and why some behave in the way they do. Often the tales that are told are stories within stories. The stories are set at home, in care homes and hospitals. The central theme is that everyone with dementia is unique, with a distinctive personality and experiences, and it is only by thinking deeply about each person individually - almost as a detecive would - that we can respond to their unique needs and give the best possible care.
