Product Description Over the next 40 years the number of people aged 60+in the world, many of whom live in developing regions, will grow by 1 billion. What will old age be like for them? This original book provides an analysis of links between development, population ageing and older people, challenging some widely held misconceptions. It highlights the complexity of international experiences and argues that the effects of population ageing on development areinfluenced by policy choices. The book will be of interest to a range of academic disciplines, including economics, gerontology, social policy and development studies as well as policymakers and practitioners concerned with developing countries. Review "...this important book should be required reading for policymakers whose decisions will influence ageing and development in the coming years." Ageing & Development Review "The 21st century is when the developing countries begin to match the 20thcentury ageing achieved by the developed world. This timely book, by a leading authority in the field, is essential reading for everyone interested in ageing and development."
