There is no doubt that the need for a multidisciplinary cadre of
informed and skilled health professionals in geriatrics is growing
as the population ages. This book was developed as a response to
that need and is designed to assist health care professionals in
locating some of the best materials in geriatrics available in the
various disciplines. The annotations found in this volume are
written clearly and concisely so that the reader can quickly grasp
the essence of each reference. The book is organized into two
sections, the first of which identifies resources for specific
health care disciplines, and the second focuses on resources in
health care issues that cut across all disciplines. Specifically,
Section I (Geriatrics in the Health Care Disciplines) provides
annotations for most major health care disciplines. Section II
(Special Issues in Geriatric Health Care) includes ethnic and
minority health issues in aging, geriatric care and older women,
medical ethics in geriatrics, and new reimbursement systems for
medical care for the elderly. Each chapter has been compiled by
experienced geriatric professionals who are trained and actively
practice in the discipline they cover. This book will be a useful
tool for health practitioners, educators, and researchers involved
in promoting geriatric education and quality clinical care of older
adults.
