This volume examines the manifold, often contradictory, aspects of
ageing, considering the ways in which contemporary social
transformations affect the experience, conception, interpretation,
and representation of ageing. Thematically arranged, it brings
together the latest scholarly work from around the world to
consider theories and narratives of ageing and the effects of space
and place on identity and the experience of old age. Combining
micro and macro perspectives, as well as theoretical and applied
research, this interdisciplinary volume offers cross-cultural and
comparative studies that resist overgeneralization and reductivism
in an effort to shed fresh light on our experience, understanding,
and response to ageing in the modern world. As such, it will appeal
to scholars across the social sciences, particularly sociology,
gerontology, demography, social policy, and cultural studies, with
interests in ageing and later life.
