Unlike most multiauthor medical textbooks, this one is divided into discrete chapters on individual syndromes, with overlap only in the general introductory chapter, a chapter on multidisciplinary evaluation, and a concluding chapter on management of patients with all types of atypical dementias. I would recommend the book both as useful background reading and as a ready reference when a neurologist, psychiatrist, or internist\u003cbr\u003eencounters a patient with any of the atypical dementias.....Overall, the book is a very useful volume to have on hand when questions arise about a patient with cognitive issues, as well as a book to read from cover to cover. As I noted at the outset, the book is exceptionally cohesive, with all chapters similarly outlined and topics skillfully organized, thus minimizing repetition. I have also found several of Dr Geschwind’s articles about atypical and rapidly progressive dementing illnesses to be very useful, especially proposing the mnemonic VITAMINS to outline the causes of dementiasto\" \u003cb\u003e(Cogn Behav Neurol 29:4 Dec-16)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eNotes on contributors, vi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Introduction, 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMichael D.
