With the proportion of people between young adulthood and the third
age growing in relation to children and young people in western
industrialised societies, there is an increasing need for a
comprehensive look at the past, present and future of adult lives.
These adult lives are defined by the experience of history, are
structurally specific, and draw upon different interpersonal,
lifestyle and cultural resources and it is important to recognise
the impact of the past and the present on future adult lives.
'Adult Lives', co-published by The Policy Press and the Open
University, is a diverse collection of readings, rich in resources,
from all stages of life. These readings contribute to a shared life
course perspective to understand how those living and working
together in an ageing society relate to each other. The originality
and appeal of this Reader lies in its holistic approach to
understanding ageing in adulthood through biography and
auto-biography that is applicable to all, including those
developing policy and in practice, and will make essential reading
for those who wishing to contextualise ageing, understand how lives
can be transformed through policy and practice, and consider the
lived experience
