AnnotationThere is a sense of urgency regarding the demographic effects of an ageing population in the US. Articles examine the ageing society and its effects on: longevity and social structure; family life; gender; children; education; ethnic minorities; relations between the generations; work and retirement; the health-care system; and economic consequences. Although population ageing has the promise of a better society, the consequences of not considering problems could lead to social tensions. (RH).
