What is the future of old age? How will families, services, and
economies adapt to an older population? Such questions often
provoke extreme and opposing answers: some see ageing populations
as having the potential to undermine economic growth and
prosperity; others see new and exciting ways of living in old age.
The Futures of Old Age places these questions in the context of
social and political change, and assesses what the various futures
of old age might be. Prepared by the British Society of
Gerontology, The Futures of Old Age brings together a team of
leading international gerontologists from the United Kingdom and
United States, drawing on their expertise and research. The book's
seven sections deal with key contemporary themes including:
population ageing; households and families; health; wealth;
pensions; migration; inequalities; gender and self; and identity in
later life.
