A Caregiver’s Guide to Alzheimer’s Disease 300 Tips for Making Life Easier


Free Download Patricia R. Callone, "A Caregiver’s Guide to Alzheimer’s Disease: 300 Tips for Making Life Easier "
English | ISBN: 1932603166 | 2006 | 136 pages | PDF | 1310 KB
"An estimated 5 million Americans have Alzheimer’s disease. That number continues to grow – by 2050 the number of individuals with Alzheimer’s could range from 11.3 million to 16 million. Alzheimer’s disease is not a normal part of aging. It is a devastating disorder of the brain’s nerve cells that impairs memory, thinking, and behavior. Written for patients, their families, and caregivers, A Caregiver’s Guide to Alzheimer’s Disease: 300 Tips for Making Life Easier will help readers understand what is physically happening to the brain so they can empower their own special skills and talents throughout the disease process. The book is divided into three sections that correspond to the progression of Alzheimer’s and the unique challenges encountered at each stage.

Draining New Orleans The 300-Year Quest to Dewater the Crescent City [Audiobook]


Free Download Richard Campanella, Chris Abernathy (Narrator), "Draining New Orleans: The 300-Year Quest to Dewater the Crescent City"
English | ASIN: B0CRVX13RB | 2024 | M4B@64 kbps | ~13:11:00 | 389 MB
In Draining New Orleans, renowned geographer Richard Campanella recounts the epic challenges and ingenious efforts to dewater the Crescent City. With forays into geography, public health, engineering, architecture, politics, sociology, race relations, and disaster response, he chronicles the herculean attempts to "reclaim" the city’s swamps and marshes and install subsurface drainage for massive urban expansion.
The study begins with a vivid description of a festive event on Mardi Gras weekend 1915, which attracted an entourage of elite New Orleanians to the edge of Bayou Barataria to witness the christening of giant water pumps. What transpired in the years and decades that followed can only be understood by examining the large swath of history dating back two centuries earlier and extending through the colonial, antebellum, postbellum, and Progressive eras to modern times.
