Product Description Faces Of Aging Is A Collection Of Essays And Photographic Images That Address The Challenge Of Aging In A Society That Is Not Sympathetic To Older People. The Result Of This Negativity Deprives Us All From Interaction With A Very Valuable Segment Of The Population.Older People Can Provide Us With Experience, Knowledge And Affection If We Change Our Attitude Toward Them And Begin To See Them As A Resource Rather Than A Liability. History And The Humanistic Tradition Have Shown Us That When Respected And Valued, Older Citizens Can Continue To Be Productive And Creative And Can Contribute To The Quality Of Life. From The Publisher First Sentence: Having Grown Up In A Rural Environment In Northern Germany Where (At Least At The Time) The Elderly Were Afforded A Healthy Dose Of Respect, I Was Stunned To See Now The Elderly In Tne United States Were Treated And Viewed About The Author Nader R. Shabahangi, Ph.D., Received His Doctorate From Stanford University And Is A Licensed Psychotherapist. His Multicultural Background Has Made Him An Advocate For Different Marginalized Groups Of Society Throughout His Adult Life. In The 1980'S He Worked With Abused Children And Teenagers And Led Anticipatory Bereavement Groups For Coming Home Hospice. In 1992 He Founded The Nonprofit Organization Pacific Institute With The Purpose Of Training Psychotherapists In A Multicultural, Humanistic Approach To Counseling And To Provide Affordable Therapy Services To The Many Diverse Groups Living In San Francisco.In 1994, Noticing The Often Inhumane Treatment Of The Elderly Living In Institutions, He Started To Develop An Innovative Gerontological Wellness Program In Order To Provide Emotional Support And Mental Health Care Services For The Elderly. In 1997, Together With His Two Brothers, Nader Opened A Residential Care Home For The Elderly In San Francisco Called Hayes Valley Care, Where He Could Along With The Pacific Institute Internship Team Implement The Gerontological Wellness Program. Nader Continues To Create Programs With The Purpose Of Caring More Comprehensively For The Elderly
