Leisure and everyday life with dementia

Edited by Karen Gray, Christopher Russel, and Jane Twigg, Leisure and Everyday Life with Dementia is part of the Reconsidering Dementia series, edited by Keith Oliver and Dawn Brooker. As the title suggests, the book explores leisure from the perspective of the everyday lives of individuals living with dementia. This is the original approach the book brings to the literature – how leisure could be handled as a part of the lives of people living with dementia, bringing meaning and vitality to their experiences. The main aim of the book is to seek raising ‘awareness to the role and meaning of leisure in the lives of people living with dementia’
