Anotace
This successful textbook offers a clear, well structured introduction to the study of ageing and later life. Examining the differing perspectives on the ageing process within the social sciences and biology, the contributors provide a comprehensive and critical understanding of the key features of ageing.The text for this Second Edition has been extensively revised and expanded to take account of recent theory and research. A new chapter has been added dealing with issues of death and dying, and particular attention has been paid to questions of gender and ethnicity in the social structuring of later life. Ageing in Society was developed by the British Society of Gerontology to fulfill the need for a comprehensive introductory text at a time when understanding the ageing process was becoming increasingly important. This new edition will be welcomed by students and lecturers in the social, medical and behavioural sciences studying ageing and the life course, as well as by those actively involved in social work and the health and welfare services. It has been adopted by The Open University as a set book for its course K256 An Ageing Society.
