Ying-Ling Jao

Dr. Taylor was a former psychologist who was diagnosed with dementia. I had a chance to attend his presentation and learned about his experience of living with dementia when I was a first-year Ph.D. student and began pursuing dementia research. This book provides insights into the experience of living with dementia and the needs of this population. Dr. Taylor’s words and spirit—alive with me—have inspired me and my work as an educator in gerontology nursing and researcher in dementia research.
