Marty, the book “Mayo Clinic on Alzheimer’s zDisease and Other Dementias” is an excellent resource for reasearching dementias. The similarities and differences among the various types of dementia are highlighted in charts. That book is available on Amazon. I paid $26 two years ago.

You can also find useful information on the Alzheimer’s Association web page. Here is a link:
