This publication addresses the gender dimensions of people’s
lived experience and emphasizes how gender relationships
differentially impact on women’s and girls’ as well as men’s
and boys’ subjective well-being across the lifespan. It
therefore fills a significant gap in the literature on quality of
life and subjective well-being. The book brings together research
which compares female’s and male’s subjective experiences
of well-being at various life stages from a variety of countries
and regions, particularly focusing on women’s subjective
well-being. Sex-disaggregation of data on objective conditions of
quality of life is now routinely undertaken in many countries of
the world. However, despite the burgeoning of objective data on sex
differences in life conditions across the world, very little gender
analysis is carried out to explain fully such difference and there
is still a serious dearth of data on gender differences in
subjective experiences of quality of life and well-being. This
publication will assist researchers, teachers, service providers
and policy makers in filling some of the gaps in currently
available literature on the nexus between age and gender in
producing differential experiences of subjective wellbeing.
