Best practical information for caretakers

I have been a caretaker for my spouse who has had dementia for 3 years. I have read many books and this is definitely the best. It is clearly written. It does not scream directions and diagnosis at you from but has a practical and compassionate tone that allows me to read without becoming stressed. It gives symptoms that I have seen first hand but hadn't read about in any other source. I highly recommend this book.
