ABSTRACT
In this chapter, I begin by re¯ecting on current understandings of dementia and the relevance of rehabilitation. As I said in the introduction, the way in which we view and understand dementia has undergone considerable change in recent years, and dementia care focuses increasingly on ®nding ways of managing disability so as to support or maintain well-being. Through exploration of the biological, psychological and social aspects of dementia I will highlight the relevance and scope of neuropsychological rehabilitation.
