AnnotationThis well-established and accessible textbook has been completely revised. Each chapter has been updated to reflect current thinking, and the chapter about personality and lifestyle has been significantly expanded. Other chapters cover intellectual change in later life; ageing and memory, language and mental illness; and problems in measuring older people's psychological status. A concluding chapter discusses the future of ageing. Aimed at undergraduate level, it provides a foundation from which further postgraduate study may progress. There is a glossary of technical terms, an extensive reference list and index. (KJ/RH).
