Description

This best-selling, multidisciplinary, social aging text presents positive images of aging while considering the many factors that contribute to how aging individuals experiences life.

 

Up-to-date and expanded, this text offers a comprehensive view that presents aging positively, portraying concepts of active aging and resiliency, and defining “productive aging” by elaborating on the numerous ways elders contribute to society and their families. Based on the latest research findings, it offers greater depth to critical issues of aging, attending to differences by age and cohort, gender, ethnic minority status, sexual orientation, and socio-economic status.


Features

  • multidisciplinary approach focuses on the sociological, psychological, and biological and cultural aspects of aging.
  • Themes that underlie each chapter are the importance of congruence between elders and their environment, and of the interaction between the biological, psychological, and social aspects of aging, all within a life course ­perspective that takes account of historical, economic and cultural and structural contexts.
  • Integrates coverage of women and ethnic minorities in every chapter, and in separate chapters that address international and cross-cultural aging issues, as well as the population's strengths and resiliency.
  • Integrates coverage of multigenerational and intergenerational exchanges that affect quality of life.
  • Complete coverage of the demographics of an aging society, and how the changing population affects every institution in our society, as well as the global environment.
  • Critical issues, major debates, and legislation around controversial legal and ethical issues, particularly the “right-to-die” movement and “rationing” health care, are presented in the context of social aging theories.
  • Each chapter concludes with “Glossary,” “Resources,” “References,” and “Summary and Implications.”


New To This Edition

  • This ninth edition of Social Gerontology: A Multidisciplinary Perspective, continues to reflect the profound change in the way society views aging and older adults - a more optimistic viewpoint that people can, to some extent, influence their own experience of aging.
  • Since the last edition, there has been a dramatic shift in the economic context in which we age.  Growing numbers of older people must continue to — or return to —work because of lost retirement income, the high cost of health care or unexpected rises in their housing costs.  The ninth edition examines many of these issues, most of which were not even thought of as possibilities when the last edition was published.
  • The authors have thoroughly updated the text.  Social gerontology encompasses a wide range of topics with exciting research in many domains, including social, health, and long-term care policies and programs.   
  • Here are just some of the new topics and research findings discussed in the ninth edition:

New research findings and critiques on extending both years and quality of life by preventing or managing chronic diseases, enhancing active aging, and maintaining productivity.

 

New evidence-based findings on health and long-term care, including unpaid family caregivers and underpaid direct care workers, as well as public policies supporting them, such as consumer-directed care, integrated care systems, and Medicaid waivers for home and community-based care.

 

Recent developments in the areas of preventing, diagnosing, and treating depression and dementias such as Alzheimer’s disease are reviewed.

 

The benefits of health promotion and of spirituality for achieving and maintaining active aging also has growing research support, as demonstrated in this edition.

 

The chapters on informal supports and family caregiving recognize the growing number of grandparents as primary caregivers of grandchildren and of parents caring for adult children with long-term disabilities, and the policy and programmatic barriers confronting them.

 

The sections on technology, including growing computer use by elders, and universal design that help people “age in place” are expanded.

 

Research and interventions to change the culture of long-term care and to develop elder-friendly communities are described.

 

The evolution of newer models of community-based long-term care such as assisted living, adult family homes, and adult day health is discussed.

 

The growing research on lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transsexual (LGBT) older adults and attendant policy and practice implications are incorporated in many chapters.

 

Both the resilience of and the historical disadvantage faced by older women and elders of color are emphasized.

 

Given the dramatically changing political arena, the chapters on social, health, and long-term care policies reflect contemporary debates related to federal and state budget cuts, the impact of the 2003 Medicare prescription drug law, the 2009 health care debates and older adults’ political participation in these discussions.

 

Culturally competent methods to understand and respectfully meet the needs of an increasingly diverse older population are also identified throughout.

Reviews

The UCLA teaching team for the class we have taught for now 11 years agreed your text book will be ours next year...Biologist Rita Effros (recent recipient of the Kleimier Award) thought you covered the biology better than the other texts we have used...I love the treatment of women and ethnic elders. The strength perspective, yes!

We are all excited about using it for our 180 freshman.  Now we will be even better with your book!

 

- JoAnn Damron-Rodriguez and colleagues, UCLA
