Written by leading international experts this book helps students and practitioners to better understand and cater for the needs of our aging population. It examines how services can be provided to meet the expectations and needs of a growing population of aging citizens within a cost-effective, social justice and positive aging framework. It identifies how resources allocated to aged care can be distributed equitably to better meet the demands associated with housing, retirement, service provision and care, and how health promotion principles can contribute to a healthy older population.
Investigating current critical debates in health and social science, the book explores innovative new approaches to aged care and aging. By using international examples and a multidisciplinary approach, this comprehensive textbook provides a broad understanding of aging from a social perspective and analyses concepts of ageism, healthy aging and positive aging. |
