First published in 1980, The limbo people is based upon research
carried out in a day centre ('the Centre') for elderly Jewish
people in a London Borough and studies the experience and the
conception of time among the elderly. The development of the
arguments concerning time was founded on (a) the relationship
between the community of participants and the outside world; and
(b) the construction of events and interactions between
participants at the Centre. The organization of this book re-enacts
the process of reconstituting time as manifested in the Centre,
against the background of the participants previous experiences,
and in terms of their present existential situations. This book
will be of interest to students of sociology, anthropology and
gerontology.
