Stephen G. Post - Dignity for Deeply Forgetful People and Meeting the Challenges of Alzheimer's Disease

I am excited and honored to be welcoming Stephen G. Post back to the podcast. Stephen is a professor of preventive medicine, and director of the Center for Medical Humanities, Compassionate Care, and Bioethics at Stony Brook University. He is recognized internationally for his work on the unselfish, compassionate love at the interface of science, ethics, religious thought, and behavioral medicine.In today's conversation, Stephen and I discuss his new book, Dignity for Deeply Forgetful People: How Caregivers Can Meet the Challenges of Alzheimer's Disease. In this book, Stephen offers new perspectives on the worth and dignity of people with Alzheimer's and how we approach a "deeply forgetful" loved one to notice and affirm their continuing self-identity. Episode Resources:Stephen G.
