References/Notes (p. 25)

Amy Gogarty is a painter and writer who currently teaches Art History, Ceramics History and Contemporary Theory at the Alberta College of Art & Design in Calgary, Alberta. All images in this artist book were developed using CorelDraw Select Edition from photographs taken by her, with the exception of that on page 20, which was taken by Raymond Gogarty. Valerie Dowhaniuk bound the book, and Shelley Ouellet developed a companion website. Medical references were compiled from a number of internet and journal sources. I would like to thank my family physician, Dr. Lois Silvester, for making her personal collection of articles on Alzheimer's available to me.
