Drawing primarily on review articles by some of the leading
scientists working in the field of aging. This volume will
communicate the latest developments in our understanding of how and
why human beings change as we age. Ours is truly the age of aging.
We are on the edge of a demographic, social, economic, and health
transition revolution which will globally shape life in the 21st
century. Increasingly, the aging of the population is having vast
social and personal impact, changing past perceptions of the
life-cycle; the organization of health care systems; social
security policy; economics of retirement; political elections;
cultural and religious views on aging and death; intergenerational
relations; the nature of family life; the structure of communities
and attitudes towards death. Aging is a multi-disciplinary problem.
The effects of aging is an area of study with ever increasing
importance to departments in the humanities and sciences, and it is
a phenomenon studied by many disciplines hosting a range of related
courses.
