This book considers outcome measures relevant for Alzheimer's disease, identifies suitable assessment tools and considers the relative merits of each of these. In addition to domains by regulatory bodies (cognition global functioning and activities of daily living), there are original reviews of new and important aspects of the various outcomes including neuropsychiatric features, quality of life measures and caregiver burden.
