Description

Explore the first global history of aging with Aging in World History by David G. Troyansky. As demographic aging becomes a major concern for populations across the globe, understanding our past is essential to navigating the modern world. This volume provides a necessary look at how the treatment of old age has evolved over time. Unlike many histories that focus solely on Western perspectives, this book expands its scope to include global patterns. It examines how attitudes toward the elderly and their lived experiences have varied and come together across different cultures. From the ancient world through to the present day, Troyansky tracks the changing demographic patterns that have shaped human society.
