Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

This collection brings together many of the poet's continuing
preoccupations: the idea that no book is complete till a reader
reads it; that the totality of any writer's oeuvre constitutes one
work, one book; and the Biblical and mystical idea of the Book of
Life.

What does it mean to grow old? What makes later life meaningful?
What gives a frail and isolated or institutionalised older person
their sense of wholeness and self? This substantially updated new
edition of Elizabeth MacKinlay's seminal text presents the latest
theory and research to explore these questions in depth, pointing
the way towards new ways of thinking about and engaging with the
spirituality of ageing. Encompassing the findings of a new research
study on baby boomer spirituality, the book presents a wider and
more comprehensive view of ageing and spirituality, concluding that
spirituality for the baby boomer generation is every bit as
important as for the cohorts before them, but also fundamentally
different, with fewer being practicing members of a religious
faith. Drawing on in-depth interviews with older people, and
containing many new ideas whilst also addressing the foundational
theories and questions essential to scholarship in this field, the
book also includes a new and timely chapter on the spirituality of
older people in our increasingly multicultural and multifaith
societies. This clear and practical text presents much-needed
guidance for health and social care practitioners, chaplains,
clergy and others seeking to identify and support the spiritual
needs of older people, as well as students and researchers in
related disciplines.
