AnnotationThis volume is the outcome of a Workshop organised by the Center on Aging at the University of Hong Kong and jointly sponsored by the Elderly Commission of the Hong Kong Government, held in January 2000. The Workshop's purpose was to canvass recent developments in long-term care for older people in seven countries around the Pacific Rim - Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, the US, Canada, and Australia - and to assess prospects on the threshold of the 21st century. A central aim was to promote comparative analysis to give a better appreciation for, and limits to, transfers in policy and service delivery. (RH).
