During recent years, an increasing amount of academic research
has focused on older people with a particular emphasis on settings,
places and spaces. This book provides a comprehensive review of
research and the policy area of 'ageing and place'.
An insightful book on an important topic, Andrews and Phillips
have together edited a valuable information and reference source
for those with interests in the spatial dimensions of ageing in the
twenty-first century. Ranging from macro-scale perspectives on the
distribution of older populations on national scales, to the
meaning of specific local places and settings to older individuals,
on the micro-scale, the book spans an entire range of research
traditions and international perspectives.
