As today's baby boomers reach retirement and old age, this timely
study looks back at the first generation who aged in the British
welfare state. Using innovative research methods, Charlotte
Greenhalgh sheds light on the experiences of elderly people in
twentieth-century Britain. She adds further insights from the
interviews and photographs of celebrated social scientists such as
Peter Townsend, whose work helped transform care of the aged. A
comprehensive and sensitive examination of the creative pursuits,
family relations, work lives, health, and living conditions of the
elderly, Aging in Twentieth-Century Britain charts the determined
efforts of aging Britons to shape public understandings of old age
in the modern era.
