Frailty syndrome, depression, visual and auditory dysfunctions fall within the domain of Great Geriatric Syndromes \(GGS\), aka Geriatric Giants, whilst posing a serious challenge for the seniors, their relatives, but mostly for medical personnel who deal with the swelling numbers of such patients in their daily practice. This work addresses diverse aspects of therapeutic management, also accounting for clinical specifics of those dysfunctions. Epidemiology, causes and consequences, diagnostics, pharmacological and non\-pharmacological management, as well as overall prevention, are discussed at length. This book may well be used as a reliable compendium of hands\-on knowledge, or as a handy manual by the health professionals caring for the seniors on a daily basis. Prevalent demographic circumstances call for the development of a coherent, transparent, and safe management programme for the seniors at risk of social exclusion due to GGS. Meanwhile, the Authors are happy to offer the third volume in the Great Geriatric Syndromes series. This publishing venture effectively addresses the key expectations of a large community of health professionals regularly dealing with treatment management, rehabilitation, and overall care for the seniors. The growing need for comprehensively addressing the most challenging issues experienced by the seniors, in due consideration of each one of the GGS, actually underpins the entire series. Its overall aim consists in offering credible sources of concise, clearly structured, and reliable information for all health professionals involved with helping the seniors, from primary prevention to terminal care. The Authors very much believe the third volume meets their expectations half way."]
