内容説明

How do various ethnic communities compare on levels of health, income and quality of housing for their elderly? This volume demonstrates that the Black community is among the poorest on all three levels - especially when compared to their white counterparts. The book offers conceptual perspectives on both the uniqueness of Black elderly as a group and at the same time provides analytical approaches for understanding their diversity. In twelve incisive essays, the state of America's Black aged is assessed and policies and programmes analyzed. The authors point to the importance of gearing services to a diverse group of elderly people and highlight the severe demand for such community services curtailed by the very real discrimination and economic limitations that exist today.
