AnnotationDemographic changes - such as the increasing number of older people and their decreased level of workforce participation - have prompted considerable interest in retirement as a topic for research. The purpose of this book is to review, summarise and integrate a diverse literature, structured around the three phases of pre-retirement, retirement decision-making, and post-retirement. Chapters cover the economic, sociological, gerontological and psychological theory and research. These include the ongoing debates about early retirement, extending working life, and work after retirement. (RH).
