Conceptual and Methodological Issues on the Adjustment to Aging Perspectives on Aging Well
International Perspectives on Aging Volume 15 Series Editors Jason L. Powell University of Lancashire, Manchester, United Kingdom Sheying Chen Pace University, New York, New York, USA
The study of aging is continuing to increase rapidly across multiple disciplines. This wide-ranging series on International Perspectives on Aging provides readers with much-needed comprehensive texts and critical perspectives on the latest research, policy, and practical developments. Both aging and globalization have become a reality of our times, yet a systematic effort of a global magnitude to address aging is yet to be seen. The series bridges the gaps in the literature and provides cutting-edge debate on new and traditional areas of comparative aging, all from an international perspective. More specifically, this book series on International Perspectives on Aging puts the spotlight on international and comparative studies of aging.
