Older women run their own businesses. Older women go to aerobics
classes. Older women fall in love. In fact, older women have active
lives and make a major contribution to the community despite the
the public assumption that they are past their use-by date. A
Certain Age explores the public and private worlds of older women.
Challenging the emphasis on declining health in other studies of
ageing, it looks at the interactions between older women and
family, friends and the community, as well as their work and
leisure activities. The authors discuss the factors that are
important in older woman's lives such as home, menopause, fitness,
learning, widowhood and intimacy. They show that many older women
maintain good health and an independent lifestyle while others
experience barriers that prevent them from continuing to be active
members of their community. A Certain Age is valuable reading for
anyone who works with older people, develops programs or policies
for older people, or is interested in the experience of growing
older.
