"Aging and Everyday Life" presents a balanced and penetrating view
of the aging experience. The research in this book reveals that
many, if not most, of the triumphs and trials experienced in later
years are not unlike those confronted at other points in life. Just
like younger people, the elderly experience both change and
stability, shedding old roles and entering new ones. The process
takes place in varied spheres of life: the worlds of home and
family, work, and friendship.
This thoughtful, engaging text brings together twenty-eight
essays by leading researchers in social gerontology to explore the
everyday aspects of aging. Readers will come away viewing the
elderly as people whose lives are as complex and diverse, and
therefore as nuanced, as any.
