"The idea for the book originated from my need to provide appropriate brain exercises for my clients who have MCI. All of the brain-exercise books on the market today are for people with no cognitive impairment and therefore were too hard for my clients. I knew that I had to provide something for this underserved population."--Dr. Tonia Vojtkofsky

"Look out, Sudoku! Keep Your Brain Stronger for Longer offers a fantastic tool to help people exercise their brain--and will be greatly appreciated and well received by those with MCI as well as those caring for them. It also helps us to understand that cognition is affected by much more than just memory loss, and goes a long way to help dispel some of the myths and stigmas associated with dementia. Kudos for pulling together such a great resource!" -Lori La Bey, founder of AlzheimersSpeaks.com
