Description
Now in its fifth edition, this text addresses the economic aspects of ageing. It provides an examination of the significant advances and changes that have taken place in recent years as they affect US social policy and individual retirement decisions. "The economics of aging" is a resource for students, planners, human resource researchers, and, in short, all who have a personal or professional interest in the essential questions relating to economic and retirement issues facing the growing aging population in the United States. It is a comprehensive work that examines changes in retirement patterns, problems of older workers, and the complexity of retirement preparation. Pension plans, health costs, and programmes affecting financial security are discussed in detail.
