内容説明
What constitutes successful ageing? What are the preventative goals that encourage successful ageing in relation to health, financial security, independence, and sense of personal meaning? How can we cultivate and communicate strategies for effective prevention programmes? These and other important issues are examined in this multidisciplinary volume.
The first section sets primary prevention within a lifespan perspective, examines ageism as a social construction and presents the demographics of successful ageing. Part Two explores biological issues such as chronic disease, energy levels and dementia in relation to possible prevention strategies. Later-life well-being considered from a psychosocial perspective is covered in Part Three and in the final part issues of diversity within the older population are discussed.
