Description

This compact, focused guide is perfect for students and others new to the field of gerontology. It covers topics related to the phenomena of advancing aging, including how older age has been defined historically, cultural myths related to advanced age, health and function in later life, how older age is financed throughout the world, and other key questions. Features include further reading for each chapter, a glossary of key terms, and tables that provide easy reference points.
