Product Description The ageing of the population has enormous implications for the provision of, and access to, health care. Christina Victor's important textbook provides comprehensive overview of the experiences of older people, chapters on physical health, mental health, disability and lifestyle, a thesis of current policy developments, the key debates on the future health of elders and an international, uptodate perspective. Written by a leader in the field, the book covers key questions such as the fitness of future older people, the widening inequalities in their health and whether health in old age is related to habits and behaviour in earlier life. Review "An extremely insightful and thoughtprovoking book, presenting a wide range of relevant issues for consideration to help the reader more fully appreciate the helath and social care dynamics of ageing." Richard BryantJefferies, CNWL NHS Foundation Trust"As a text that can be read as a whole or picked off in chunks, this is a good primer in the gerontological library." Age & Ageing"A comprehensive overview of the key questions concerning healthy ageing ... this book is ideal for professionals and academics who have not previously worked on the subject and want to get a first introduction." International Journal of Integrated Care"[Ageing, health and care] offers an excellent indepth examination of the health of the elderly in Great Britain with some international comparisons." International Journal of Ageing and Later Life Review "This is an informative, accessible and essential reader and study guide for anyone with an interest in ageing: gerontologists, health and social care professionals, managers, policy makers, academics and researchers."
