Debates on policy concerning medical care and social welfare of the
elderly become ever more pressing, and many of the assumptions on
which they are based are now open to question. This study sets out
to provide a historical perspective on the economic, medical, class
and gender relations of the elderly, which until now have received
relatively little attention. In particular, the position of the
elderly is linked to the fundamental issues of health, disability
and medical care. With attention currently focused on the setting
of the retirement age, community and family care, and pensions, as
well as wider debates on the rights of the elderly, this volume
aims to supply a historical context for such issues.
