Description

Product Description Two internationally renowned experts in ageing look beyond longstanding factors like class, gender and ethnicity to explore new social divisions, including contrasting states of physical fitness and mental health. They show how differences in health and frailty are creating fresh inequalities in later life, with significant implications for the future of our ageing societies. Review "With the growing differentiation of particular forms of later life, this book definitely sets the stage for more discussion along these lines... This unquestionably pushes researchers to think about how later years are--and will keep--diversifying in societies across the world." Anthropology & Aging About the Author Chris Gilleard is Visiting Senior Research Fellow in the Department of Social Paul Higgs is Professor of the Sociology of Ageing at University College London. He has published widely on the changing nature of later life and is a co-editor of the journal 'Social Theory and Health'.
