This companion to The New Dynamics of Ageing provides a comprehensive multi-disciplinary overview of the latest research on aging. Together, both volumes report the outcomes of one of the most thorough investigations ever undertaken into the changing nature of aging and its consequences for individuals and society. Volume Two concentrates on four major themes: autonomy and independence in later life; biology and aging; food and nutrition; and representations of old age. Each chapter provides the essential research findings with a strong emphasis on the practical implications of aging and how evidence-based policies, practice, and new products can produce individual and societal benefits. | The New Dynamics of Ageing Volume 2 by Alan Walker, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
