Healthy Aging in Sociocultural Context examines two emerging trends
facing countries throughout the world: population aging and
population diversity. It makes a unique contribution to our
understanding of these timely issues by examining their
implications for healthy aging, a topic of increasing importance to
policy-makers, planners, researchers, families, and individuals of
all ages. The book focuses on three countries that provide
important examples of these emerging global trends - Japan, Sweden,
and the United States. Japan and Sweden are at the forefront in
terms of healthy life expectancies, while the United States
represents a country with considerable diversity. Examining these
three countries together provides a unique opportunity to address
questions such as the following: How can we understand differences
in healthy life expectancy among different countries? What role
might diversity play? And how might these effects change as
geographic mobility increases diversity, even among societies that
historically have been relatively homogeneous?
