Prejudice 鈥� and our attempts to question it 鈥� is the thread we follow through Decembers past in New Scientist
My elderly uncle is in hospital with a urine infection. His capacity for normal behaviour and thought is greatly reduced and I'm told the same happens when other older people have the same kind of infection. Why is this? If I (a 43-year-old) picked up a urine infection it might sting, but wouldn't lead to mental incapability.
