For the first time since the 1900s, and the separation of psychiatry (biology), psychoanalysis (unconscious), and psychology (learning), all three disciplines are brought together to elucidate dementia’s causes. Causes that have evaded understanding from the beginning of civilization. Even though the main thrust is for a biological cause, more than a third of older people with dementia do not have enough of the biological markers to explain their dementia. As a result, we need to look for alternative explanations. As we get older our representation of the world becomes more accurate and more dominant. We tend to rely on our past experiences rather than on learning new material. Since memory’s role is "recalling past events to facilitate learning," relying on past experiences diminishes learning and eventually weakens memory. Once learning becomes less dominant, memory starts to suffer, The secondary role of memory, to bring past experiences into consciousness then starts to suffer. Memory loss in dementia disconnects the conscious from the unconscious. Dementia becomes an issue of consciousness rather than a problem of thinking. This perspective provides a different interpretation of our thinking processes and establishes a more humane view of the deficits that we witness in dementia. We learn to see the person living with dementia not as a product of loss but as a product of miscommunication. By examining what memory is for, we develop a humanistic approach. By changing the perspective--that it is not dementia that causes memory loss, but memory loss that causes dementia--a new interpretation emerges that sees the contribution of perceptual biases in dementia. It is impossible to understand aging without first addressing dementia. Trying to answer the question of whether aging is pathological—a disease—or whether dementia is the disease of aging is at the crux of gerontology. This book argues that perceptual change results in pathology. That reliance on our past experiences relegates memory as peripheral and eventually weakens memory to the extent that we lose contact with our accumulated subconscious experiences. This is the social pathological of dementia.
