Hi gin98-ga:

Well, it might be a simpler question to ask which publishers *haven't*
published books on Alzheimer's disease! The list I was able to compile
reads like a "who's who" of the publishing industry. There are also
many smaller presses printing material in this area.

To answer your question I went through the first five or so
Alzheimer's book lists I found with the Google search:

://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=Alzheimer%27s+books

After a book by book search of those sites, I went to Amazon and went
through their top 70 selling books on the subject.

In compiling my list, I stayed away from:

* the strictly "medical" side of things (as you appear to be more
interested in the "lay-person" side of thing)
* books that help *prevent* the disease
* strictly fictional accounts.

When I ran into a single publishing company with multiple "presses"
publishing books on the subject, I just added the larger company name
once.

Here's my list, in no particular order:

I thought I had requested, and I need  addresses for the publishers
also. Please advise.

Hi gin98-ga:

Here are the addresses, phone numbers, etc. that I was able to extract
from the websites of these various publishers. In some cases, there
was such a complicated contacts page (and you didn't tell me *why* you
wanted to contact them) that I've just sent you the contact page URL.
Please go to the page yourself and select the correct address.

In future, if you use Google Answers again, please be as *specific* as
you can be in your original question and any subsequent requests for
clarification. We researchers take your question at face value when
determining how much research to do for the price offered.

Again, if you have any further questions about these publishers, I
suggest you put their name into a Google search. That is how I found
this contact information for you. Many of them have wonderful
websites, full of valuable information.

This is the first time I have done a computer search via your service,
so I did not do a wonderful job in asking my question.  I did not put
down enough information and as a result I needed to ask for
clarification.  The researcher did an EXCELLENT job and I appreciate
the patience with this novice. I will ask much much more specific and
informative questions in future.   Again thank you and you can plan on
my using your researchers again.  Well done and thanks also for the
education. Sincerly, Virginia Franklin
