Annotation | As the world's population gets increasingly older, there has never been a more pressing need for the study of old age and ageing. In this book, a team of international authors with multidisciplinary backgrounds draw evidence from a variety of different perspectives and traditions. They assumes no previous expert knowledge and guide its student readership through the main subjects in gerontology: traditional areas, such as biological and social ageing, health and social care, and retirement; and more contemporary areas, such as technology, the arts, and sexuality. (RH). |
