We're all getting older from the moment we're born. Ageing is a
fundamental and ubiquitous aspect of life. Yet in ethics, not much
work is done on the questions surrounding ageing: how do diachronic
features of ageing and the lifespan contribute to the overall value
of life? How do time, change, and mortality impact on questions of
morality and the good life? And how ought societies to respond to
issues of social justice and the good, balancing the interests of
generations and age cohorts? In this Cambridge Handbook, the first
book-length attempt to stake this terrain, leading moral
philosophers from a range of sub-fields and regions set out their
approaches to the conceptual and ethical understanding of ageing.
The volume makes an important contribution to significant debates
about the implications of ageing for individual well-being, social
policy and social justice.
