Perspectives
Perspectives was a quarterly newsletter written for people with dementia that addressed the concerns, reflections, and coping skills of individuals with Alzheimer's or a related memory disorder. It provided up-to-date research, explored relevant topics, provided a forum for discussion, and built bridges between people with memory loss around the world. Individuals with Alzheimer's or a related disorder contributed their perspectives to this newsletter in the form of articles, poetry, or letters. Perspectives was written and edited by Lisa Snyder, LCSW, and published by the University of California, San Diego, Shiley-Marcos Alzheimer's Disease Research Center.
Perspectives is not currently generating new issues due to Lisa's untimely passing; however, in 2022, a team of Lisa's colleagues completed the compilation of every issue along with supplemental frontmatter into a cohesive anthology e-book for continued access and enjoyment. Lisa's original art and photography have been incorporated along with reflections and insights. Readers can use the 'control F' feature to find key words related to topics of interest efficiently.
