COVER: All About Alzheimer's. What Doctors Know. How Families Cope. Cover: Photo by Jodi Buren-

ALL ABOUT ALZHEIMER'S: A MEDICAL MYSTERY: The degenerative brain disorder known as Alzheimer's disease is still a medical conundrum. Researchers have a gallery of suspects, from genetic links to environmental toxins. But only one thing has recently become clear: the fourth leading cause of death for adults will take a staggering toll on the nation's health- care system and on "the hidden victims," the families of sufferers. Society: Page 54.
OUT OF CONTROL: Change in Eastern Europe was nearly out of control. In East Germany, a power vacuum provided new impetus for reunification. Czechoslovakia was on the verge of a mostly noncommunist leadership-with a playwright as its guiding spirit. And Lithuanian nationalists served warning that runaway change may not stop at the Soviet border. International: Page 32.
THE NINETIES: An anniversary is the first chance journalists get to polish their rough drafts of history. Of course, everyone-and everything-will turn something sometime in the 1990s. Start marking your calendars, or simply clip and save this piece: the only anniversary guide you'll need until the year 2000. Lifestyle: Page 78.
